Woods let down by putting

Tiger Woods lamented his putting after finding himself seven shots off the lead following the opening round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational.

Woods, who is seeking to win the tournament for a record-equalling eighth time, looked in a promising position at three under after 11 holes but bogeys on the 13th, 16th and 18th meant he had to settle for a level-par 70 at the Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio.
