Tiger bogeys the eighth hole and completes the front nine in even par 36.
Joaquin Niemann holes out from the fairway for an eagle on the ninth hole. He's in the lead at 3-under par. Cameron Smith, who's already won the Tournament of Champions and the Players Championship this year, is at 2-under.
I refuse to keep track of changes to the UK basketball lineup. I will tune in for their first game in early November, and I'll root for whomever is there.

On 16, Tiger curls in a long birdie putt -- it had to be at least 35 feet -- to move to one under par. The huge crowd at 16 -- it's great to see those folks back -- cheers wildly.
Im birdies the 15th hole to move to 5-under par. He pars the last three holes to finish with a 67, and he leads the Masters by himself. Dustin Johnson is 4-under through 16.
