Tiger Woods walked off golf course to see his name atop the leaderboard Friday in the Australian Open. Even more pleasing to him was the way he got there.
With control of his shots and comfortable over the putter, Woods put together his best back-to-back rounds of the year with a 5-under 67 that gave him a one-shot lead going into the week at The Lakes Golf and Country Club
It's the first time he has led a tournament since the third round of the Chevron World Challenge last year, and the first time against a full field since his last win two years ago in the Australian Masters. Woods was tied for the first-round lead at The Barclays last year.
"I really played well," Woods said. "Even though I shot 5 under, it felt it could have been 8 or 9 deep."
He was at 9-under 135, one shot clear of a familiar name in these parts -- and to Woods.
The Australian Open, first staged in 1904, is Australia's most prestigious golf tournament. Geoff Ogilvy is the defending champion.
