World Golf Championships Day 2.


Well, as expected Tiger Woods made it through safely to Round 2 after a rather tepid match yesterday, winning 3&2 against Brendan Jones. It was a comfortable win for the World number 1 as the Aussie didn't offer much resistance at all. Woods is up against Tim Clark in the second round later today.


There were a couple of big name exits yesterday with Padraig Harrington and Sergio Garcia tasting defeat. The matchplay format certainly throws up some shocks, when you have to perform over one round or go home.


Phil Mickelson only scraped through after apparently cruising against Angel Cabrera. The Argentinian won 3 of their last 4 holes to take the match in to overtime. Mickelson then produced a birdie at the 1st extra hole to claim victory.
