U.S. Open 2019: Tiger Woods closes Round 3 with birdie | Sporting News

Tiger Woods battled from the first hole at Pebble Beach on Saturday.

The 15-time major winner shot an even-par 71 in Round 3 at the U.S. Open but that number doesn’t even begin to tell the story.

Woods was repeatedly in the fairway throughout the day but he never figured out his iron play and it got him in tons of trouble.

He made five bogeys and five birdies to finish out his round and is now even par for the tournament going into the final round.

His putter got him in trouble on the front nine as he missed a putt for par at the seventh and then another for birdie at the eighth which put him at 1 over for the front nine.

Things just never quite looked right as Woods was visibly frustrated throughout points in his round.

But he did make some really nice putts like the one on No. 5 which was part of his lone back-to-back birdies on the day.

He also finished his day up with a birdie at 18 to get to even par for the tournament. He had a putt for eagle but it was from long range and just slid past the hole on the right.

Woods likely will not compete for the championship Sunday as he is well back of the leaders and four back of the leader in the clubhouse Danny Willett who sits at 4 under.
