“I just want some time off just to get away from it,” Woods said after finishing at 148, 6 over par, well off the 36-hole cut number. “I had a long trip to Thailand (for a family vacation after the U.S. Open) and then trying to get ready for this event, to play this event, it’s been a lot of travel, a lot of time in the air, a lot of moving around and different hotels and everything. I just want to go home.”

Over two days, Woods played the six par-5s in 2 over, failing to birdie any of them. He took 32 putts in each round.
“I kind of grinded my way around the golf course today,” he said. “I had a chance to get it back to even par for the tournament. I didn’t handle the par-5s well. I was in perfect positon on all three of them, if I handled those par 5s well I would be right there.”
For those who thought Tiger’s Masters win was going to make it easy for him to catch Jack’s Major record.
Think again.
