DUBLIN, Ohio For the second straight day, Tiger Woods walked off the 18th green at Muirfield Village with an under par score and a look of frustration. Here are a few observations from strolling another loop with the man as he surged up the Memorial Tournament leaderboard only to stumble down the stretch:- When its been on, Tigers game this week has been about as good as anything hes produced in this latest comeback. That includes a five-hole stretch to close out the front nine Saturday where he made three birdies and an eagle, quickly making up for a slow start and moving into contention before the leaders teed off.- Woods actually grabbed a share of the lead at 11 under with a birdie on No. 15, but the putter betrayed him from there. A three-putt from 46 feet on No. 16 was followed by a miss from inside 4 feet for par on No. 18.- It added up to a 4-under 68, which left him at 9 under heading into the final round. Thats probably the highest score I could have possibly shot today, he said. I played really, really well. I played beautifully, actually.- Woods barely blinked tee to green, hitting 12 of 14 fairways and 15 of 18 greens. He managed to turn a rare hiccup with a poor drive off the 15th tee into a birdie, and he didnt drop a shot outside of his two late three-putts.- While he got to the top of the leaderboard at one point, Woods finished his third round before the leaders made the turn and fully expects to face a significant deficit in order to claim his sixth trophy at Jacks place. Im in position. Hopefully I wont be too far back, he said. I wish I could have stayed up there at 11 under.

- The putter was a clear culprit for the second straight day. Woods spent time on the practice green as dusk fell Friday night, but it didnt help him much considering he also missed a 4-foot birdie putt on No. 14 and two others from inside 12 feet. I was fine at the beginning of the round, he said. My speed was bad on the last two holes, the last two out of three holes, and I didnt make any.After estimating that he could have turn a second-round 67 into a 62 or 63, Woods believes that todays effort should have been closer to 63 or 64. I am definitely not taking advantage of how well Im hitting it, he said. Shooting in the low 60s could have been pretty easy if I had just putted normally.
