Tiger survives rules scare

Tiger Woods survived a rules scare but battled a heavy fever, a severe rain storm and then a ‘mud’ ball at the last to post a two under par 70 on day two of the Hero World Challenge in Windermere, Florida.

Woods round included a 13th hole eagle, and his first all year, along with three birdies through 17 holes to be four under for the round and heading for only his seventh sub-70 all year.

But Florida’s Sunshine State status was left drenched when a huge downpour lashed the course around 3pm local time, quickly flooding fairways, bunkers and greens.
