Tiger on pro-am round: Hit the shots I needed to

NASSAU, Bahamas -- If he were keeping score -- which he wasn't -- Tiger Woods would have tallied a loosely-recorded 2-under-par 70 on Wednesday at Albany Golf Club in the pro-am that precedes the Hero World Challenge.

Two eagles, two bogeys and no birdies summarize the 5-hour round that included four amateurs on a muggy, windy Caribbean day.

Pro-ams are standard fare preceding tournaments, and Woods has almost always treated them as a leisurely way to get a look at the golf course and greens, without much grinding. That was the case Wednesday, and he acknowledged that it was a serious endeavor for only about 12 of the 18 holes.
