PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The first two rounds, Tiger Woods talked about how he was putting the ball well but just wasn’t giving himself enough good looks to make birdies.
He certainly seems to be doing that here in the third round, where Woods just made his fifth birdie in his last six holes to get to 10 under and into a tie for second. Woods is now just three strokes back — he started the day six back — after making the turn on the back nine at Pebble Beach in 32.
Just how well is Woods hitting it today? Well enough that he took just 13 putts through his first nine holes.
The man Woods is chasing, Charlie Wi, meanwhile, just made the turn at Spyglass Hill in 1 under.
