Woods had good looks at birdie on the next two holes, as well, but missed from 20 feet at the second and from just outside of 10 feet at the third.He did two-putt from 45 feet at the par-5 fifth, however, to get to 11 under par and within three strokes of the lead.

After hitting his tee shot into a bunker at the par-4 sixth, Woods made a 7-footer for par to stay three back. He then failed to birdie the par-5 seventh and parred Nos. 8 and 9 to turn in 2-under 34. At 11 under for the tournament, Woods was four off the pace and in a large group tied for ninth place.

Woods' deficit grew quickly on the back nine as Patrick Cantlay pulled out front with back-to-back birdies on Nos. 7 and 8, while Woods bogeyed the par-4 10th.
Play continues in the rain. Tiger ended up in a bunker and could only get it back into the fairway, but nips a nice wedge to a couple feet. Should be able to save par, but with the putting this week its not a gimme.— Tiger Tracker (@GCTigerTracker) June 3, 2018
Missed it. Couldnt have been more than 4 feet. Another Tracker jinx.— Tiger Tracker (@GCTigerTracker) June 3, 2018
Bogey drops him to -1 today, -10 overall and suddenly 7 shots behind Cantlay. Any hopes for win No. 80 may have just left Dublin.— Tiger Tracker (@GCTigerTracker) June 3, 2018
Perhaps too little, too late, but Woods did recover with a birdie at the 11th.
