What stood out was the day. It was his best score on a Saturday in an official event since the fall of 2019.
LOS ANGELES — Jon Rahm could hear the cheers from all over Riviera, the sound typically associated with someone making a charge. Except the came from the opposite side of the course that featured players too far away from the lead.“You're fully aware where Tiger is anywhere,” Rahm said after his own masterpiece Saturday in the Genesis Invitational, a 6-under 65 for a three-shot lead.
It's a small sample size to be sure — 12 tournaments since he won the Zozo Championship in Japan in 2019 — but his legs are a bigger issue than how he swings the club. Woods made the cut on the number at Riviera and started on the back nine. He opened with a 15-foot birdie putt, missed a good chance on the par-5 11th and then raised the putter in his left hand as his 25-foot birdie putt from the fringe on the par-3 14th dropped for another birdie.
“I thought I could make a run where I could reach out and touch the leaders,” Woods said before conceding that he was too far back.
