Big stick off the tee box on the par-5 ninth, Tiger hits a low cut that misses the bunker on the left side of the fairway and rolls out quite a bit downwind. On the front nine, Tiger has been spectacular with driver in hand, this drive going 347 yards and leaving only 280 to the pin. A reminder, this guy could hardly walk eight months ago and is outdriving some of the best players in the world.
On his second shot, he blasts a 3 wood that lands on the green and trundles over the back. He has plenty of green to work with, a position he has been in a couple times Friday and been able to convert for birdie. If he’s able to here, that’s a 5-under front nine.
The chip shot comes out dead, leaving him a much longer birdie putt (13 feet) than he would’ve liked. The putt looked good the entire way before missing low, however he had a bit longer than he would’ve liked on the comeback. He knocks it in to turn in 4-under 32.
