After narrowly making the PGA Championship cut a defiant Tiger Woods had predicted he still had a chance to hoist the Wanamaker trophy but any remaining belief disappeared in a nightmare nine-over 79 third round on Saturday.
Playing his second event in a comeback from a career-threatening car crash, just making the cut at Southern Hills Country Club was something to celebrate but for Woods and his thousands of fans there was precious little to cheer -- although they did every shot.
"I'm sore," Woods told a reporter. "I know that is for a fact. We'll do some work and see how it goes." A bogey at the second was followed by a triple-bogey at the par-three sixth after finding water off the tee as his slide picked up speed with another dropped shot at seven.
