Tiger Woods racks up best round of year to open BMW Championship

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. -- Tiger Woods went back to where he started, returning his trusty Scotty Cameron putter to the bag before scorching Aronimink Golf Club with his best round of the year.

Woods shot 29 over his first nine holes and finished with an 8-under-par 62 to hold the early lead at the BMW Championship, the third of four FedEx Cup playoff events.

The 29 included four birdies and an eagle over Aronimink's back nine. It was the sixth sub-30 score of his career and the first since he shot 28 in the second round at East Lake during the 2007 Tour Championship.
