After hitting an absolutely perfect drive on the final hole, Woods then choked on his second into the green, pushing it dreadfully to the right and missing the green completely.

If you're not familiar with the final hole, it's worth noting that there is a massive body of water the entire way down the fairway and past the green. This can cause players to over-analyze their shot into the green and push it to the right so as to not hit the ball into the water.

That's precisely what happened to Woods.

He almost hit a brilliant shot from the right rough, putting the ball within a foot of the pin on his third, and in the end Woods had to settle for a par on the 18th hole.

He finished with a final score of minus-one for the tournament, and after the terrible first nine holes of his final round he will be walking away with something positive in the end.

After a brilliant 16th hole, Woods attacked the infamous par-three 17th. 

His tee shot was brilliant. He hit a baby cut with his pitching wedge and landed the ball about ten feet from the cup.

After a lengthy wait, Woods hit his second-straight birdie putt to move him into red numbers for the tournament.

Tiger is still Tiger, folks. He isn't quite on his game, but his determination and focus are as strong as ever.

Woods is making a minor comeback and is now at even par for the tournament by making birdie at the par-5 16th hole.

He hit his second shot well short and into the front-left bunker on the 16th green. His third shot was a thing of brilliance as he pitched out of the bunker and used the natural contours of the green to funnel the ball down next to the hole.

Woods then drilled his five-foot birdie put to make his third birdie of the day.

After a horrid start to Woods' final round, he seems to be moving in a positive direction on the back nine. 

After going plus-four through is first eight holes, Woods has now made all pars and one birdie through 14 holes. He'll be working hard to make a strong finish, regardless of how bad his round has been thus far.

As competitive as Woods is, this mediocre display is surely frustrating, but if we know anything about the man it's that he won't quit until he figures out how to fix it.

Tiger is going the wrong way, and he's now minus-four through 10 holes on Sunday, bringing his total up to plus-two on the tournament. With the leaders teeing off soon at minus-11 and minus-12, it's clear that Woods' performance will be one he hopes to forget.

His fourth round got off to an ominous start when he bogied the first hole. He came right back and birdied the par-five second hole, and it seemed like maybe Woods would get his mojo back in time for a Sunday push into the top-20.

Unfortunately for him and his fans, Woods then shot four over par through the next five holes—a double-bogey at four and bogies at six and eight—knocking completely out of contention.

It's back to the drawing board for Woods, though lately it seems as if he has perpetually been in the same condition. His game isn't on point, and as such, neither is his confidence.

It appears as if Tiger's day is over, and at the very least he made some progress. Tiger finishes Saturday's round at -2 and now finds himself tied for 33. It doesn't appear as if Woods is going to make much noise in this tournament though, as he shot par on the day.

Rickie Fowler is still on top of the leaderboard, but is tied for first with Kevin Na  and -9.

Tiger is currently sitting at -2 overall and is shooting even on the day so far through 13. As of right now he's tied for 35th.

Rickie Fowler on the other-hand is continuing his hot play and is now in sole possession of first on top of the leaderboard at -9 followed closely by Matt Kuchar, Zach Johnson and Kevin Na.

Recap:

After a horrible Thursday, he rebounded rather nicely on Friday.

The four hole stetch of birdies from 8-to-11 really gave him a jolt of confidence that has been lacking in the past month. He was very consistent in all aspects of his game. 

While Woods may be six strokes back heading into the weekend, he is lurking, and after his performance on Thursday, that's all he could ask for. 

Hole 18-  Par 4 

Hole 17- Par 3

Tiger's tee shot bounced to the far left of the cup, then he narrowly missed the long birdie. He calmly sank the four-foot putt to save par heading to the final hole of the day.

Result: Par

Total Score: -2 (-4 today)

Hole 16- Par 5

Uh oh...or not.

Tiger's tee shot landed in the mulch but he saved himself with a spectacular second shot that got him back on track.

He landed within 10 feet of the hole on his third shot and calmly sank the birdie putt to break par for the first time in five holes.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: -2 (-4 today)

Hole 15- Par 4

This was the definition of just another hole. An average tee shot, an average iron shot and a very make-able putt for par. 

His aggressiveness is beginning to wane as the day rolls on. 

Result: Par

Total Score: -1 (-3 today)

Hole 14- Par 4

Woods landed his tee shot in the rough and had to play catch up for the rest of the hole.

A long putt from the edge of the rough positioned him to nail a six-foot putt for the bogey. It could have been much worse. 

Result: Bogey

Total Score: -1 (-3 today)

Hole 13- Par 3

As soon as Woods teed off on 13, a fan screamed "LIGHT THE CANDLE!!" that certainly caught the attention of fans around the hole, but it didn't distract Tiger. 

His tee shot set him up for a 15 foot birdie putt that hit the edge of the cup, but failed to drop. He settled for the tap in for par. 

Result: Par

Hole 12- Par 4

Woods had another drive that bested Rickie Fowler, but his second shot landed roughly eight feet further away from the hole.

The distance ended up being the difference as Woods was wide left on the putt and had to settle for par, breaking his streak of four consecutive birdies.

Result: Par

Total Score: -2 (-4 today)

Hole 11- Par 5

Another hole, another strong showing. 

Woods parlayed a beautiful tee shot into an eagle putt just off the green that was just right of the cup. It led to a tap in for birdie as you can see his confidence growing by the hole. 

That's four birdie's in a row for Tiger.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: -2 (-4 today)

Hole 10 - Par 4

Suddenly, Tiger Woods can't miss. A picture-perfect approach shot left him with a short birdie putt that he had no trouble dropping into the cup for his third straight birdie.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: -1 (-3 today)

Hole 9 - Par 5

Woods finishes the front nine strong with another birdie. He made a nice chip out of the green-side bunker to set up the opportunity. As of right now, he's on the right side of the cut line.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: Even (-2 today)

Hole 8 - Par 3

A little luck never hurt anybody. Woods' tee shot rolled past the hole, but caught the fringe and rolled back toward the hole. He buried the putt to get back within one shot of the cut line.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: +1 (-1 today)

Hole 7 - Par 4

A bad approach shot left Woods short of the green at the seventh, but a nice pitch left him an easy par save. While he avoided a setback, he needs to get going soon.

Result: Par

Total Score: +2 (Even today)

Hole 6 - Par 4

In an interesting twist, Woods decided to change his right shoe midway through the sixth hole. It didn't provide any magic as he was forced to take another par.

Result: Par

Total Score: +2 (Even today)

Hole 5 - Par 4

As has so often become the case for Woods recently, any progress he makes is almost immediately given back with poor hole. He's right back to where he started.

Result: Bogey

Total Score: +2 (Even today)

Hole 4 - Par 4

Easily the best hole of the day for Woods so far. Two well-played shots gave him a good look at birdie and he dropped it in nicely.

Result: Birdie

Total Score: +1 (-1 today)

Hole 3 - Par 3

Woods couldn't capitalize on a terrific tee shot, missing the putt by a few inches to the right. He tapped in for par, which has started to become a common theme. That won't be enough.

Result: Par

Total Score: +2 (Even today)

Hole 2 - Par 5

Woods found the rough off the tee and compounded his error with a poor second shot. He ended up having a long birdie attempt. He made a nice run at it, but had to settle for another par.

That's not what Woods was looking for on the day's first par-five hole.

Result: Par

Total Score: +2 (Even today)
