The 48-year-old made his 24th consecutive cut at Augusta National after completing 23 holes on a windswept day two.
Tiger Woods refused to give up on his dream of a 16th major title after making a record 24th consecutive cut in the Masters on another windswept day at Augusta National.
That left Woods seven shots off the lead shared by playing partner Max Homa, world number one Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau, who could only add a 73 to his opening 65.“I’m right there. I don’t think anyone is going to run off and hide right now, but it’s really bunched. The way the ball is moving on the greens, chip shots are being blown, it’s all you want in a golf course today.”
Tiger Woods shields his face from the blowing sand on the 18th hole during the second round of the Masters Play resumed at 0750 local time on Friday and Woods bogeyed the 14th and 18th to complete a 73 which left him with just 49 minutes to rest, refuel or practise before he got his second round got under way.
“His short game was so good. I don’t think I can explain how good some of the chip shots he hit today were. “So all the cliches you hear about him and all the old stories about how he will grind it out, it was fun to see that in person.”
