Tiger Woods Picks Up Steam at Northern Trust, Shoots 3-Under on Saturday

Tiger Woods had his best showing at the 2018 Northern Trust on Saturday with a three-under 68 in the third round.

After posting consecutive rounds of 71, Woods needed to post a low number if he wanted any chance to get near the top of the leaderboard heading into the final day.

While things didn't work out the way he would have hoped, there were signs of improvement for Woods.

His short game let him down on Friday. The 14-time major champion needed 35 putts to finish the second round, negating him hitting 16 of 18 greens in regulation.
