PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Tiger Woods' second round featured 17 textbook holes and, well, the 17th hole. Some thoughts from Day 2 at The Players:

· There’s no way to sugarcoat this, Tiger’s day was defined by the surreal 15 minutes that it took him to play the par-3 17th hole after his tee shot bounced onto the green, ran along the walkway and trickled into the water. It was just the fifth time he’d hit into the water on the iconic island green in his career. From the drop area he hit a “flat” wedge that never had a chance to hold the green and walked away with a quadruple-bogey 7.
