TROON, Scotland -- Tiger Woods tied a personal record in the British Open on Friday, one he could have done without but perhaps should come to expect.
Woods matched his highest 36-hole score as a professional -- 156 -- to miss the cut for the third consecutive time in a major.
He tapped in for a routine par on the 18th hole at Royal Troon and signed for a 6-over 77, a round that got away from him early with a double bogey and never improved during the day.
"It wasn't very good," Woods said. "I made a double right out of the hopper when I needed to go the other way. Just was fighting it pretty much all day. I never really hit it close enough to make birdies and consequently made a lot of bogeys."
