Four-putt spells disaster for Tiger Woods at WGC-Mexico Championship

MEXICO CITY – Tiger Woods was five shots out of first place as he stood in the middle of the par-5 15th hole at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Saturday's third round of the World Golf Championships-Mexico Championship.

With 251 yards between him and the flagstick, with a 5-iron in his hand, Woods was one solid shot from putting for eagle. One solid shot from putting heat on the leaders. One solid shot from making his massive gallery roar.

He was an eagle away from making the red shirt mean something on Sunday.

Fifteen minutes later, he was out of contention.

Woods pushed the 5-iron into a bunker and then shocked all in attendance and those watching at home by taking four putts from 25 feet to finish the hole. He three-putted from inside 4 feet to finish off his double-bogey 7.
