Woods Reckons He Needs A BMW Closing 61 Or 62 For The ‘W’.

Philadephia, PA ….

Tiger Woods reckons he is going to need a final round 61 or 62 if he is to claim victory in the BMW Championship here in suburban Philadelphia.

Woods heads into the final round lying in a share of 11th place at 12-under par and trailing five shots behind management stablemate, Justin Rose.

Woods produced his best start in the three days with back-to-back opening two hole birdies and move into double figures at 10-under par but the birdies dried-up on the rain-softened course and with Woods producing 11 straight pars before a birdie at the 14th.

Woods then holed a five-footer at the par-5 16th to be four-under on the hole over the three days of the $US 9m event and then end with a pair of pars.

“Today was one of those days where it was really — it was frustrating because I hit the ball well enough to shoot a low score,” said Woods.

“I got off to a quick start, birdieing the first two, and Joey (Le Cava – caddy) was tripping in my ear to stay patient out there because I was getting a little hot.

“I was looking up on the board and everyone seemed like they were two-under through eight holes, five-under through nine but I was only two-under, and I wasn’t doing much.

“I’m now going to have to shoot one of those 61s or 62s just to have a chance. The golf course is soft and everyone is making birdies. You can be aggressive. I got to take a run at it, whether it’s tomorrow or Monday.”
