He is 8-under 136 after two rounds and leads first-round front-runner Henrik Stenson (71) of Sweden.

"My iron game wasn't very good. I'm still struggling with my speed on the greens," admitted Woods, who had two major titles among his eight wins in 2006. "I kept blowing them by the hole today. Luckily a couple of them had train wrecks and went in. Otherwise, it was a little bit of a struggle."

Americans Chris DiMarco (68) and Geoff Ogilvy (70), this year's U.S. Open winner, are tied for third at 6-under 138.

England's Paul Casey (70) is alone in fifth place at 5-under 139.
