How is the fourth round going for Tiger Woods at the Hero World Challenge?

Woods began the fourth and decisive round of the Hero World Challenge with a score of -1, 16 strokes behind leader Scottie Scheffler. He made par on hole one but struggled on the next hole.

On hole 2 (177 yards, par 3), Tiger Woods reached the right fairway with his first shot and tried to find the green with the second. But his shot failed to overcome a slope and rolled back to his starting position.

With his third shot Woods did reach the green, but he missed a six-foot putt for a bogey and had to settle for a double bogey.

Woods recovered and made birdies on 3th, 5th, and 6th, and a bogey on 8th, coming out of the front nine playing for even par. The start of the back nine followed suit, as he made par on the 10th.

On Sunday, Woods reached a longest drive of 329 yards and an average driving distance of 301 yards. His driving accuracy was better than the previous day (57%), while his Greens in Regulations was also higher (60%).

Scottie Scheffler continues to lead the tournament with a score of -16 at the 5th hole. Sepp Straka caught up with Matt Fitzpatrick and are currently tied in second place.
