Tiger Woods makes the cut for PGA Championship

On Thursday, Woods bogeyed seven of his last 13 holes, shooting a 74 in the opening round. 

Entering day two outside the top 100, Woods needed a solid effort to advance. Woods was clutch, birdieing holes 13 and 16 down the stretch of round two to clinch his spot in the final rounds. 

Woods is a +3 for the tournament, tied for 52nd. 

After an underwhelming first round, the four-time PGA Championship winner complained of pain in his right leg, the same leg which was severely damaged in a car accident last year. 

"Loading hurts, pressing off it hurts, walking hurts, and twisting hurts," Woods said following the opening round. "It's just golf. I don't play that, if I don't do that, then I'm all right."

Last month, Woods returned to the tour, playing in the Masters after more than a year. Woods began the tournament shooting one-under-par to make the cut but finished the tournament 13 over par.
