Woods bounces back with 2nd-round 63 at Buick Open

July 31, 2009

GRAND BLANC TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP)—Tiger Woods has shot a season-low,second-round 63 to move into contention at the Buick Open.

Poor putting led to an awful start in the first round in Woods’ firsttournament since missing the cut at the British Open.

Woods teed off early Friday morning, hitting his first drive 342 yardsstraight into the blinding sun. He went on to abirdie-birdie-eagle-birdie-birdie start to remove the remote chance he wouldmiss the cut in consecutive events for the first time as a pro.

Woods followed up what he called probably the worst putting day of hiscareer with a good one, helping go into the weekend at 10-under 134.

Michael Letzig (65) had the clubhouse lead at 12 under.
