Tiger Woods continued to have an up-and-down British Open on Saturday, starting the day with back-to-back birdies and running into trouble on the back nine.
Woods looked for his ball on the seventh hole for the allotted five minutes and had to take a drop. He carded his second double bogey of his back nine on the hole.
He started the day 3-over and worked his way back to 1-under. The bogeys erased his work on his front nine, but Woods birdied his last hole (nine) to finish at 1-over for the day, and 3-over overall, tied for 58th.
T58 through 54 holes, @TigerWoods has never finished an @The_Open outside the top 30 since turning pro (15 starts). @PGATOUR
