NORTON - Tiger Woods has birdied three straight holes -- Nos. 2-4 -- and is 3 under for the day and 7 under for the tournament. Woods is going to need a lot more birdies; the leaders are at 13 under, and the winning score will likely be 15 or 16 under.

An 11-under 60 will get Woods to 15 under, an inconceivable notion for any other player except Woods.
