Tiger Woods is on track to match Sam Snead’s record of 82 PGA Tour titles after a second round 64 gave him a two-stroke lead over reigning US Open champion Gary Woodland at the halfway stage of the inaugural Zozo Championship at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club.
Woods birdied his last two holes for a 36-hole total of 12-under-par, while fellow American Woodland signed in a 66.
Meanwhile, local hero Hideki Matsuyama kept himself within striking distance after posting a 67 to lie on eight-under-par, tied with another American, Keegan Bradley, who shot a superb 63.
