NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. – Tiger Woods had his lowest round since his last victory more than five years ago, an 8-under 62 with birdie chances on all but two greens and only one bad swing all day.
All it got him at the BMW Championship was a tie for the lead Thursday with Rory McIlroy.
Woods did his part in the scorching air at Aronimink that made the 7,267-yard course feel like a pitch-and-putt. He didn't hit anything longer than a 9-iron into the par 4s and didn't miss a green until his 14th hole. He came within inches of chipping that one in.
