Iron off the tee on his fourth hole, and another fairway. That’s a huge sign early that he has hit every fairway. That’s one of the keys to someone who is going to win this week. Let’s not get carried away on a Thursday, now, but that’s a key. He’ll have 141 yards to the pin for his second shot.

It’s the best iron shot of the day for Tiger, but it goes long instead of high and right. It’s not a huge miss, he’s in the short grass, though he’ll have to scramble for the second straight hole to make a par.

Tiger’s score: 1 under thru 4.
