POTOMAC, Md. - The roars that followed him around steamy TPC Potomac course for the first few hours of his round Saturday had all but turned into a whimper as Tiger Woods was unable to convert a par putting on the final hole.
A 2-under-par 68 felt a whole lot worse than that number looks on a scorecard.
Four straight birdies; an unlikely 25-footer to close out the front nine. Woods was 3 under par for his round, 2 back of the leaders, and headed for a few easier holes on the back nine with chance to put himself squarely in the mix for the final round of the Quicken Loans National.
