An Early Start on a Major Test at St. Andrews

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Tiger Woods and James Hahn were about 75 feet apart on the same green Sunday at St. Andrews.

They just weren't on the same hole.

Hahn is a newcomer to the Old Course, and the question he seemed to pose on every tee and even some fairways was, "How do I get there?"

He was on the 13th green playing a practice round with David Duval when they noticed another ball on the back of the green beyond the flag. Along came Woods, who had ripped a 3-wood for his second shot on the par-5 fifth hole and was surprised to see it on the wrong side of the double green.
