AUGUSTA, Ga. My little Tracker heart can hardly take Tiger Woods being in contention for a third consecutive major, yet here we are.With 18-holes remaining, Tiger stands at 11 under par, in a second-place tie at the Masters,only two shots behind leader Francesco Molinari.One of the most impressive things about Tiger this week is that hes getting progressively better each day. Hes showing no signs of fatigue, shooting 70-68-67 over the first three days.The third-round 67 took a while to get going. Tiger made four ho-hum pars to start, then made bogey for the third consecutive day on the difficult par-4 fifth. From there, three straight birdies righted the ship, and he was well in contention by the time he reached Augusta Nationals historic second nine. I just let the round kind of build, he said. I dont need to go after every single flag.

Tigers three worst drives of the day were at Nos. 9, 11 and 13. The first two were way right;the third was way left. He was 1 under par combined on those holes and -somehow, against all odds -had a clear look at the green each time.Tiger hit 16 of 18 greens for the second consecutive day, hit 9 of 14 fairways like he did in the first round, and took 30 putts for the second consecutive day.That 30 numberwouldn't make Saturday seem like his best putting performance of the week,but it was by a mile. All the ones that didnt go in looked like they were going to. Putts on Nos. 4, 9, 10, 12, 17 and 18 all sniffed the hole but did not drop. His worst putt of the day, ironically,led to a birdie. On the par-5 eighth hole, Tiger had 10 feet for eagle and did not hit the hole. But it was an easy tap-in for birdie.
Golf Central Highlights: Woods makes 6 birdies, fires 67
Highlights from Tiger Woods' third round Saturday at the Masters, where he shot a 5-under 67 and got within two shots of the lead. Tiger will be in the last grouping Sunday with Molinari and Tony Finau. Theyll go at 9:20 a.m.ET because of an early, two-tee start to beat the weather. Tiger was asked what hell have to do to get his body ready to play such an early final round at Augusta National. Matter of factly, he said hed wake up around 3:45 or 4 a.m. to start his daily routine. Ill get the mind and body ready for tomorrow and get after it a little bit earlier than were used to, he said.The last word from Tiger: Im just thankful to be able to come back here and play again. Last year was a step in the right direction and built a season around that and then here we are.
With the PGA Tour arranging early-round groups based on FedExCup standing for the fourth straight event, Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Rose will play together for the first round of the Tour Championship. DeChambeau won both The Northern Trust and Dell Technologies Championship, and as a result he'll begin at East Lake as the No. 1 seed.
