JERSEY CITY, N.J. – It was another uninspiring from Tiger Woods Thursday at The Northern Trust. Here are my observations after a 4-over 75 that leaves Woods in danger of missing his second consecutive cut:
• Tiger definitely looked like a guy who was playing just his 13th competitive round since the Masters. He posted negative strokes gained numbers in every major statistical category. One word to sum that up: Rust.
• On the plus side, he didn’t seem to show any ill effects of the back stiffness that led him to just chip and putt for half of his pro-am round Wednesday.
