He recorded 1 eagle,스포츠토토 3 birdies and 1 bogey on his round 3 scorecard. Woods recorded a 4 under par 67 and tied for 26th with Justin Thomas (USA) and Jason Day (Australia) with a median total of 3 under par 210 strokes.
He landed the ball on the fairway 9 out of 14 times and hit the green 12 out of 18 times, showing a relatively stable shot feel. He averaged 306.4 yards on drive shots.
Woods, who started on the 10th hole, made a good start by catching a birdie from the first hole. It is a short par 4 hole (284 yards) that can be one-on, but the previous round results (bogey in round 1, par in round 2) were not very good. Again, Woods’ drive shot failed on the green. He rolled the ball to the left side of the green using a putter instead of a wedge, but it stopped about 4.5m away from the pin. After that, he succeeded in putting for a mid-range birdie and recorded his first birdie.
Woods, who added a birdie on the par 3, 14th hole (195 yards), finished the first nine holes with only two birdies and no bogey.
The ‘shot of the day’ came from his 10th hole, hole 1 (par 5, 509 yards). Woods, who sent 316 yards with his tee shot, succeeded in putting the ball 1m near the pin with his second shot. The albatross was also the best shot possible. In the following hole 5, he added a birdie and showed perfect performance, reducing 5 strokes without a bogey.
After causing controversy by playing a prank on his fellow fighter Justin Thomas during the first round, Woods issued an official apology and subsequently appeared to beg for forgiveness with a shot of atonement. The slight crack in his perfect performance was on the par 4, 7th hole (416 yards). Even though I shot my tee shot right into the middle of the fairway, my second shot didn’t go to the green. In the end, he made a bogey on this hole and had to be content with reducing 4 strokes in the 3rd round.
Woods, who limped back to the clubhouse after the game, said briefly, “I feel sick.” However, he added, “It’s the best I’ve played since the Masters,” revealing satisfaction.
Meanwhile, Yon Ram (Spain), who cut 6 strokes only in the 3rd round, took the lead by 3 strokes with an intermediate total of 15 under par and 198 strokes. Max Homar (USA) ranked second with a 12-under 201, and Keith Mitchell of the US ranked third with an 11-under 202.
Patrick Cantlay ranked 4th (-10) alone, and Gary Woodland (above USA) ranked 5th (-9) alone.
Among Korean players, Kim Joo-hyung (21) tied for 45th with Lim Seong-jae (25) with an interim total of 1 under par 212 strokes without reducing the number of strokes. Kim Seong-hyeon (25) also failed to reduce the number of strokes and tied for 55th with an average total of even par 213.
