“It means I have a chance going into the weekend,” said Woods, who was at 1-over 145 through 36 holes. “I’m here. I have a chance to win the golf tournament. I don’t know if they’re all going to finish today, but I’m done. I got my two rounds in. Just need some food and some caffeine, and I’ll be good to go.”
Even with such limited preparation, there's something about Augusta National that always brings out the best in Woods. “It was awesome,” said Max Homa, who rounded out the threesome with Woods and Day. “It really is a dream to get to play with him here. I’ve been saying, I always wanted to just watch him hit iron shots around here, and I was right up next to him. It was really cool. His short game was so good. I don’t think I can explain how good some of the chip shots he hit today were.”
Homa was impressed as much as anything by the way Woods maintained his cool on the 18th green when the sand went flying in gusts approaching 40 mph for the second day in a row.
