Tiger Woods fired his second 6-under 64 of the week to hold a two-shot lead at the midway point of the Zozo Championship.

The 43-year-old didn't skip a beat after a typhoon canceled play for an entire day in Japan. He opened Saturday's round with a birdie on the first hole and made the turn at 1-under before kicking it into another gear.

He carded five more birdies en route to a back-nine 31 to pull away from Gary Woodland. Tiger sits at 12-under through 36 holes and in a great position to match Sam Snead's record of 82 PGA Tour victories.

Here's how the top of the leaderboard stands after Round 2:

Place Player To Par R2 Score
1 Tiger Woods -12 64
