AUGUSTA, Ga. _ Tiger Woods hit a spectacular recovery shot Friday from left of the 14th fairway. And he deserved a foul shot for the 3-point play.
As he was walking away from the spot, an overzealous security guard ran in to control the gallery. The man slipped and slid into Woods' right foot. Woods winced and hobbled away, not looking back.
"Accidents happen," Woods said. "You move on."
Here's the incredible thing: Faced with a 28-foot birdie putt, Woods drained it, adding a fist pump.
When ESPN's Tom Rinaldi asked if he felt OK, Woods replied: "Other than having four knee surgeries and four back surgeries, I'm great. How are you doing?"
And he smiled. It was the same broad smile spectators saw from Woods as he strolled from the 18th green to the scorer's tent.
Woods had every reason to be both thrilled and ticked. He shot a 4-under 68 to move within one of the lead of 7 under, shared by Francesco Molinari, Jason Day, Brooks Koepka, Adam Scott and Louis Oosthuizen. But he could have totaled 65 or 66. Instead he missed three reasonable birdie putts _ 13-footers on Nos. 13 and 18 and a 6-footer on the par-3 12th.
"I left a few shots out there," he said, "but overall a solid day. It was fun."
Here are the other highlights and lowlights from the second round:
