Par-5 problems plague Tiger Woods

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. -- Tiger Woods played his way out of contention at the PGA Championship on Saturday.
And he likely put himself in the position of having to get an at-large selection to make the U.S. Ryder Cup team.

Woods shot even-par 72 at Whistling Straits after beginning the third round just five strokes out of the lead. When he finished, he was 10 shots behind Nick Watney.
"Ironically enough today I hit the ball better than I did the first two days; I made nothing," Woods said. "You have to putt. I stuffed it in there early on the first few holes and made nothing, and also had a few other putts on the front nine. No matter how good you hit it, you've still got to make putts. I just didn't do that today."
Although Woods has shown improvement compared to his career-worst 72-hole performance a week ago at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, he is still struggling with several facets of his game.
