Tiger Woods Faces Elimination After WGC-Dell Match Play Loss to Brandt Snedeker

Tiger Woods may have just become the biggest Aaron Wise fan in the world.

Woods will need Wise to defeat Brandt Snedeker on Friday to avoid being eliminated from the WGC-Dell Match Play after losing 2 and 1 to Snedeker in their group round matchup.

The former world No. 1 never held a lead the entire match, as Snedeker threw together an excellent round while Woods struggled to keep up. Snedeker took his first lead with a birdie on the par-four third, and though Woods got him back on the very next hole, it wasn't long before the Nashville native took the lead again.
