Tiger Woods eliminated by Nick Watney in second round at Accenture Match Play
``The old adage is to expect your opponent
R11 Driver to make it,'' Watney said. ``And when it's Tiger Woods, you really expect him to make it.''
Just not this Tiger Woods.
In what is becoming a troubling trend for
TaylorMade R11 Irons, he missed the birdie putt so badly that it never even touched the hole, giving Watney a 1-up victory Thursday in the Match Play Championship.
It was the third straight time that Woods, a three-time
R11 Irons champion in this event, failed to get out of the second round.
``I didn't miss a single shot coming in, which is good. And that was fun, to hit the ball that well,'' Woods said. ``Unfortunately, I just didn't make a putt when I needed it.''
