England’s David Horsey has a three-shot lead at the Made in Denmark event after shooting a four-under-par second-round 67.
A stiff and sore Woods, the overnight co-leader, arrived at Sedgefield Country Club about three hours before his round to receive treatment on an undisclosed ailment.
While the birdies aren’t rolling in with the same frequency for Tiger or anyone else on Saturday at the Wyndham Championship, the main attraction is still in a share of the lead. His name is also pronounced “Hoagie” and so when Woods was asked if he had ever heard of him, or if he would recognize him, there was a amusing exchange.
“I know it’s insane to say but I wasn’t playing that poorly at the PGA“.
A shot back were Davis Love III (66) and Chad Campbell (65). Blixt shot a career-best 62, and Brown had a 66.
Below is a recap of the second day’s events.
He is in search of his first Tour victory since 2013 and likely needs a win to extend his season and qualify for the Fed-Ex Cup playoffs. Depending on the math, a solo second-place finish also might be enough for Woods, who’s at No. 187. Charl Schwartzel was the ultimate bubble golfer with a No. 125 ranking entering the tournament.
Gore started the round six strokes off the lead.
On Saturday, the PGA Wyndham Championship 2015 live stream and TV coverage of Round 3 will feature a fallen star back atop the leaderboard.
He took benefit of some prime scoring circumstances through the first spherical, capturing that 64 on a course softened by showers that morning. “Most of the guys that I grew up playing with, they’re on the other tour now”. “I wasn’t quite as sharp as yesterday”.
He capped that run of consecutive birdies with a 25-foot putt on the 13th that drew a mighty roar from the huge gallery.
His shot from the left side of the green landed inside of 10 feet from the cup and rolled in. “The great thing about golf, you can always get a little bit better”.
Woods, who last week missed the cut for a third successive Major, must win today to clinch a berth in the lucrative FedExCup play-off series that starts next week. That kept him out of the final twosome with Gore on Sunday.
“This is the best I’ve felt in a while and obviously the best I’ve played so I just want to keep making progress”.
The 51-year-old Andrade had eight birdies – three in a row on Nos.
