He completed the final five holes of his second round Saturday to finish four-over for the tournament, missing the cut by two shots. “As I said, ball striking sound or then putting bad or putting great then ball striking is not so solid”.

“I just never felt like I had the speed right“, Woods said later in the same interview.
Woods will be home in Florida before the leaders tee off. He needed to make two birdies in five holes Saturday morning to make the cut.
After a thunderstorm forced play to be suspended on Friday evening, Woods entered next week’s Wyndham Championship, the last regular PGA Tour event before the FedEx Cup play-offs. “But I was out here Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday trying to figure out how to hit those shots, I started using it, and it’s worked out very well”. Returning to consistently competing for wins is as likely as him continuing to trudge his way through mediocrity, grasping for the cut line week after week.
He has failed to break par in his last seven rounds at the majors, the longest such streak of his career. “I came out today and said, ‘Show what you can do.’ For the most part, I did”, said Venezio, who has worked at Myopia for nine years and was playing in his first PGA Championship. “And to have the control that I need to have going forward, it’s starting to come back”. Prior to 2014, he missed three cuts in majors as a pro.
SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) – Tiger Woods isn’t ready to give up on the season just yet.
Woods said he would decide in the next few days whether to play at the Wyndham.
Dave Winfield was 39 years old when he hit for the cycle while playing for the California Angels on June 24, 1991. That was probably one of the most surprising things about yesterday, how quickly I got back into the mind-set of tournament golf and being aggressive.
After finding the middle of the fairway from the tee box, Johnson hit his approach to 6 feet but missed the putt and settled for a par. That too, is a little late, given he may not play another PGA Tour event this season and is all but a lock to not qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs.
“People kept asking me this week: Is it your season [over]?” He hinted at a golf course design opportunity in India. He bogeyed his first hole, at No. 14, and that was that. “And I still have plenty of golf to be played for the rest of the year … on a global level”.
“I finally figured something out today on the putting green, but the damage had already been done”, added Woods, who was in danger of missing the cut after his three-over 75 in the opening round. “I can play a little bit, too, that’s what I learned about myself”. But how is Tiger Woods doing?

“It’s not really about the season”.
He also served as a marker during the second round of the 2004 PGA at Whistling Straits, when two players from the same threesome withdrew.

“It was one of the worst putting rounds I’ve had in a very long time”, said Woods. He’s also planning to play in the Hero Challenge that he hosts in December, which moves to the Bahamas this year after being held in Orlando last year, and there will be no shortage of invitations worldwide.
