On a day with many fine performances at the 2015 Players Championship, Kevin Na remains the most consistent player with a 69 on Friday to tie for the 36-hole lead at eight under par. The best round of the day belonged to Jerry Kelly with a seven-under 65 and sits atop the leaderboard with Na.

It's the second consecutive tournament he's played and made the cut, which is a sign of progress given where he was before the Masters. 

Per ESPN Stats & Info, this marks the 16th consecutive year Woods has made the cut at the Players Championship:



Woods did make things interesting, entering the final hole at one-over and needing a birdie to make the cut. As noted by ESPN.com's Jason Sobel, Woods' save on 18 basically feels like a win based on how far he's fallen over the last two seasons:



Regardless of how things are viewed for Woods now in the prism of his career, any progress at this point is good....
