Tiger Woods started Day 3 of The Barclays primed to make a push through the weekend. After a rather poor start, he recovered well and kept himself right in the thick of things.

He finished two under for the third round—four shots off the leaders when he went into the clubhouse.

Woods had to finish off the final four-and-a-half holes from the second round on Saturday after play was suspended as a result of darkness the day before.

Going into No. 14, Tiger had been one under for the round. He birdied No. 17 to finish with two-under 69, putting himself in a good position heading into the final two rounds after his strong four-under 67 in the first.

When shooting anything four under or lower through two rounds in 2013, Tiger had been money (h/t ESPN Stats and Info).



That's why he came into Saturday with high expectations.

Despite friendly course and weather conditions, Woods really had a hard time throughout the front nine.

He started off well enough—a birdie on the first hole. He had a nice drive and an even better approach shot that left him within inches of the hole. It was an easy tap-in for the birdie.

After that, it went sour for Woods. He bogeyed the third and fourth holes and then followed suit on No. 7.

In those three holes, he equaled his bogey production from the first two rounds combined (h/t ESPN Stats and Info).



Following those stumbles, Tiger recovered on No. 8, picking up a birdie. He got himself into trouble when his approach ended up in the bunker, but luckily, his shot onto the green was superb and gave him an easy putt for the fifth shot.



He birdied the 13th hole to go back to even par for the day.

On No. 14, Woods had a great chance to continue that momentum on a par three that he had birdied back in Round 1. It wasn't to be, though, and his drive went long ...
