Tiger Woods made strides toward potentially qualifying for the Tour Championship with a five-under 67 in the third round of the BMW Championship at Medinah Country Club in Medinah, Illinois, on Saturday.
After carding matching rounds of one-under 71 on Thursday and Friday, Tiger was locked in during the third round, and he ended his day in a tie for 26th place at seven under, five strokes behind leader Hideki Matsuyama. He was also two shots behind the top 11 when he entered the clubhouse.
Woods is projected to need a finish of 11th or better in order to be among the 30 golfers included in the Tour Championship field.
