    Lee Westwood misses 36-hole cut st the Quatar Masters

    Lee Westwood shot a 3-over 75 to miss the cut at the Qatar Masters on Friday, opening the door for Martin Kaymer to replace him at the top of the rankings.

    Austria's Markus Brier had a 66 to take a one-shot lead over South Africa's Darren Fichardt (68) after the second round.

    Westwood, who finished 4 over, replaced Tiger Woods at the top of the rankings in October. Kaymer could advance to No. 1 with a second-place finish. He shot a 70 and is 10 shots back.

    Westwood's struggles in Qatar follows a 64th-place finish in last month's European Tour event in Abu Dhabi.

    "I didn't play very well," he said. "It's early-season rust, I think. That's it. I'm going to go on the range the next couple of days and try to get into some kind of rhythm."
