Sergio Garcia shot a near flawless round — hitting every single green in regulation and every single fairway except for the 1st. Sergio shot a 65, to go 11-under for the tournament. His swing changes seem to be taking hold. But he missed some very makeable putts that could have made his round spectacular.
Tiger, meanwhile, could barely hit any fairway — whether with his driver, 3-metal, or irons. On one hole, Tiger used an iron off the tee and almost pulled it into the water. But Tiger still scrambled to shoot an even par round of 70, and he hit some incredible shots out of the rough and from behind trees.
It’s kind of amazing to think that Sergio Garcia and Phil Mickleson are now more consistent off the tee than Tiger. Where did the “stinger” shot go?
