Tiger Woods could sit out US PGA Championship finale after struggling to 79

could sit out the final round at Southern Hills after recording his worst ever score in the US PGA Championship as a successful battle to make the cut took a heavy toll.

“I just didn’t play well,” Woods said. “I didn’t hit the ball very well and got off to not the start I needed to get off to. After holing from 13 feet to save par on the first, Woods drove into the creek which bisects the second hole and made a bogey five following a penalty drop, before finding more water on the par-three sixth.

Four more bogeys to start the back nine left Woods in danger of recording his worst score in any Major, his unwanted mark of 81 set in terrible weather in the 2002 Open Championship at Muirfield.
