Chasing pack close on Woods

Tiger Woods lost some of his magic today and allowed Ryder Cup colleague Stewart Cink and England's David Howell to cut his lead from five shots to two in the American Express World Championship at The Grove near Watford.

The world number one, also this week's defending champion, followed seven opening pars with a three-putt bogey on the eighth while Howell birdied the first and fifth and Cink picked up shots on the sixth and ninth.
