Thompson drops another shot at 14th. He is now at even par, T4, having dropped 3 shots so far.

5th Par 4 498.

Phil's approach curls to the flag for a birdie put but Tiger finds the right bunker. The first real miscue from him.

Tiger's bunker shot well executed gets close to the pin, but the putt is downhill.

Thompson makes birdie and is back at -1.

Tiger misses the putt, first bogey of the day, -1, T1 with Furyk and Thompson/

Hole 6 489 yards.

This hole has the sole fairway bunker of the course.

Phil over cuts a wood, left rough. Tiger's 2 iron with a twirl, fairway.

Bubba's pink driver carries the fairway bunker, and he struts down the fairway both hands in his pockets.

Phil just short of the green, Bubba hits the green, Tiger pulls his approach from 240 yards to a tricky lie near the lip of the bunker.

The hole 1-6 gauntlet may well give a final bite before it is over.

Tiger, one knee on the bunker lip, another leg in the bunker, choking down 3/4 shaft, sends the ball to the pin. With little spin, the ball settles on the fringe past the pin.

Hole 7 par 4 288 yards.

Drivable par 4, Bubba finds bunker, Phil lands on the green, but Tiger may be in an awkward lie in the bunker again.

This course is nothing if not entertaining. The drama continues.

Actually Tiger's lie not too bad. Both Bubba and Tiger get out for a possible birdie putt.

Phil lags close for a birdie putt.

Tiger's birdie putt a bit too strong, zooms 5 foot past the lip. Tiger misses come backer for a bogey and drops to +1, T6.

Did I say the drama continues? Lose a touch of concentration and the course will bite you.

Meanwhile co-leader with Furyk is Hossler, a 17-year old high school student at -1.

Hole 8 par 3 200.

Bubba and Phil missed to the left, Tiger finds the green.

Making bogey on the drivable par 4 just now must be annoying to Tiger, but it does not seem to affect his focus for the next hole.

Meanwhile, Thompson double bogeys 18 to drop to +1.

17 year-old amateur Beau Hossler makes birdie at the difficult hole 1 and is now sole leader at -2. Amazing.

Hole 10 par 4 424

Tiger driver for the second time, cuts it to the center of the fairway as Phil lands on the left rough.

Bubba AMAZINGLY takes out iron and finds the fairway. Course management from Bubba, well well. The plot twists continue...

Bubba's approach is just short. Tiger's lands on the fringe and hops onto the green, rolling past the pin on a green that slopes down front to back.

And Tiger makes the long uphill putt for birdie, back to even, 3rd behind Furyk and Hossler.

Hole 11 par 4 430

Tiger cuts another driver to the center of the fairway.

Misjudging the wind, his approach is on but well short of the pin. Phil in a similar position.

Tiger and Phil both 2-putt for par.

Hossler is running through the hole 1-6 gauntlet now, beginning to drop some shots. He double bogeys hole 4, and drops to +1, T3.

Tiger now no. 2 on the leaderboard behind Furyk.

Tiger iron stinger fairway. A well worn script.

Like clockwork.
