The 14-times major champion Tiger Woods, who has slumped to 286 in the rankings, is eyeing to win his first title since the 2013 WGC Bridgestone. She has three victories this year to push her career total to eight. That gave him a share of the lead along with Tom Hoge at 11-under heading into the next round. Maybe I just bring up my focus.
“I know it’s insane to say, but I wasn’t playing that poorly at PGA“, Woods said. “I had my chances to get it going”. “I don’t know. I’ve always done that”. Campbell shot 65, and Love had 66.
Australia’s Terry Pilkadaris was second after a 65.
As farfetched as it may seem considering the last two years for Woods, those of Haas’ generation have a preconditioned image of Tiger that is not easily clouded by a recent string of missed cuts and mediocre play. Like Woods, he needs a victory to reach the FedEx Cup playoffs. Relying on how the maths works out, a solo second-place end additionally is perhaps sufficient.
He took advantage of some prime scoring conditions during the first round, shooting that 64 on a course softened by showers that morning. That moved him from #16 to first with a two stroke lead.
“I wasn’t quite as sharp as I was yesterday”, he said.
He capped that run of consecutive birdies with a 25-foot putt on the 13th that drew a mighty roar from the huge gallery.
“Incredible” was Love’s verdict on the win, achieved with a six-under par final round of 64 that included eagles at both of Sedgefield’s two par-fives.
And as strong as his round was, it easily could have been even better. He left a 10-foot birdie putt an inch from the hole on the ninth. He said he applied for the coaching job at Pepperdine University, his alma mater, but did not get it. “I had all the opportunity in the world today to do it and I just didn’t get it done”.
Hoge, who was born about 70 miles away in Statesville however grew up in North Dakota, shared the first-round lead with William McGirt and two-time coronary heart transplant recipient Erik Compton.
He finished his round with back-to-back birdies on the eighth and ninth holes, closing by sinking a 50-foot putt.
“I said that a long time ago”.
Love has 21 career victories, three in Greensboro. He played 29 straight holes without a bogey up until that point. I saw Jason and Jonas went out there and shot a number. Charl Schwartzel was the ultimate bubble golfer with a No. 125 ranking entering the tournament.
His presence at Sedgefield Country Club has been popular – the PGA Tour reported that 34,000 spectators attended on Saturday, which organizers called “a modern-day record” for an event that has been run in various guises since 1938.
