Tiger Woods leads by three
At the Tour Championship
Words: GolfPunk
Tiger Woods has taken a three shot lead from Justin Rose and Rory McIlroy on moving day at the Tour Championship, and who would now bet against him finishing his dinner?
It's five long years since Tiger Woods has topped a leaderboard after 54 holes, and if he gets the job done today it will be his first win since 2013.
He got off to an amazing start with 6 birdies in his first seven holes, before giving one back on the par 3 9th to make the turn in 30.
His back nine saw another birdie at the 12th, with a lone bogey for the nine on the par 4 16th, to card a 65.
He now sits three shots clear of Rose and McIlroy, who carded 68 and 66 respectively.
But with all that final day experience in his tank, someone is going to have to do something remarkable to stop Tiger’s progress to another PGA victory – his 80th – which will put him just two victories behind the all-time PGA winner, Sam Snead, with 82 victories to his name.
