Tiger Woods' ongoing quest for a 15th major championship got off to a shaky start Thursday, as the world's No. 1-ranked golfer failed to take advantage of relatively benign scoring conditions at Oak Hill Country Club and double-bogeyed his final hole. Woods shot a 1-over-par 71 that included just two birdies to trail clubhouse co-leader Jim Furyk by six shots. Furyk, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, shot 65 to lead Canada's David Hearn by one stroke through the morning wave of players. Furyk's bogey on the 18th hole denied him a share of the Oak Hill course record held by Ben Hogan and Curtis Strange. Adam Scott was in the midst of a brilliant round when play was suspended in the afternoon due to inclement weather. He shot 5-under 30 on the front side and is tied atop the leaderboard with Furyk. On a day in which the course was softened by overnight rain, Woods could not take advantage, although he made several par-saving putts to avert what could have been a higher score. Source: ESPN
