While Woods led the leaderboard, his closest competitor, Chris DiMarco, displayed incredible tenacity, continually pushing Woods to the brink. DiMarco finished only two shots behind Woods, never allowing him to relax.
Sergio Garcia, on the other hand, failed, suffering a dismal round that shattered his chances of catching the unstoppable Woods. In the face of adversity, Woods rose to the situation, reacting with unflinching concentration with birdies on holes 14, 15, and 16.
Despite his apparent composure during the tough competition, Woods’ club-twirling movements after each shot indicated his underlying exhilaration.
