There is a cut after 36 holes. The top 70 players (including ties) make the cut. Any player in 71st place or worse is cut from the tournament and does not compete in the final 36 holes.
A slice happens when there is side spin on the golf ball which causes the ball to curve to the right for a right-handed player and to the left for a left-handed golfer. Sidespin to the right is caused by an open clubface (pointed right) relative to the path the club head is travelling on impact.
You can now buy 2-piece, 3-piece or 4-piece golf balls. Manufacturers have determined they can provide different playability based on how the ball is constructed.
