Woods is wowing 'em at the Western


Golf roundup

The Associated Press

LEMONT, Ill. - A squirrel making a mad dash across the sixth green darted at Tiger Woods' ball, sprinted away from it and then finally took a flying leap over it.

It's the closest anyone got to Woods all day. Woods shot a 7-under 65 Saturday in the 100th Western Open, setting the 54-hole tournament record at 18-under 198. That breaks by three strokes the mark set by Sam Snead in 1949, and matched by six others.

Woods already has tied the Western's single-round scoring mark, shooting a 63 Thursday.

"I think I got off to a good start," he said. "I hit the ball really well starting out, and on top of that, I made everything."

He also extended his lead to six shots - very bad news for his opponents. Of the other 30 tournaments he has led or been tied for the lead after three rounds, he has gone on to win 28 of them.

Two of those wins were in the 1997 and '99 Western Opens.

"I've always enjoyed being ahead. On top of that, if you're ahead and you go out there and shoot the same score, you automatically win," Woods said. "You don't have to try and make up ground. If you are ahead and you make a couple of mistakes, at least you have that lead and the cushion to right the ship and get it right back, and you can still win the tournament."

Robert Allenby, who won the tournament in 2000, and Cliff Kresge are tied for second at 204. Rich Beem matched Woods' 65 and was seven strokes back.

Mike Weir, defending champion Jerry Kelly and Glen Day are at 206.

"Obviously if Tiger keeps playing the way he is, no, there's no way," Beem said when asked if anyone could catch Woods. "Maybe somebody can shoot 63 or even 62, and maybe he'll shoot even par.

"He's obviously hitting the ball fantastic and playing fantastic."

That he was. Woods was near-perfect through the front nine, shooting a 30 and making only one bogey. He hit six of seven fairways, and the one he missed didn't cost him at all. In the right rough off the tee on the par-5 No. 5, Woods hit a tremendous second shot that left him just 11 inches from the pin.

NATIONWIDE TOUR: Jason Bohn, at 10-under-par 203, is one shot in front of second-round co-leader Michael Allen (70) in the Samsung Canadian PGA Championship in Richmond Hill, Ontario. Tom Carter (66), Scott Dunlap (66), Kelly Gibson (66) and Turpin High graduate Andy Sanders (67) are two off the lead at 8-under-par 205.

Sanders and the 72 other professionals and one amateur in the Samsung Canadian PGA Championship will be attempting to add their name to the trophy previously won by Arnold Palmer, Lanny Wadkins, Lee Trevino and Raymond Floyd, just to name a few. The tournament, which dates to 1912, is the second oldest in Canada.

EUROPEAN OPEN: Phillip Price shot a 5-under-par 67 to take a three-stroke lead after three rounds in Straffan, Ireland. Price is at 14-under 202. Darren Clarke (70), Angel Cabrera (66), Jarmo Sandelin (67), Mark McNulty (68) and Alastair Forsyth (69) are tied for second. Colin Montgomerie aced the 12th with a 7-iron of 187 yards and is at 4-under after a 73.
