Much like Friday’s opening nine, it didn’t take a low number for Tiger Woods to get within striking distance early on moving day at the Honda Classic. The 14-time major champion’s one-under 34 at PGA National was good enough to put him three shots back of the leaders.
Woods gave himself plenty of chances to make birdies, hitting five out of seven fairways in regulation and seven out of nine greens, but through seven holes he sat at even par, with no bogeys on his card. Finally, at the par-4 eighth, he converted on his first birdie of the day after knocking his 140-yard approach shot to six feet:
At the par-4 ninth, Woods hit another fairway and hit his second shot to 15 feet, but missed the birdie putt. As it stands, he’s now four shots back of solo leader Rory Sabbatini, who is two under through four holes and four under for the tournament.
