Woods, who is chasing his first major title since the 2008 US Open, got his round off to a flying start by one-putting three of his first four holes. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/aug/Tiger-Woods.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 605px; " /> Tiger Woods lines up a putt on Saturday.

He reached a four-under 140 total and shares the lead with two-time PGA Championship winner Vijay Singh (69) and first-round leader Carl Pettersson (74). &ldquo;The putts were going in, so I felt good about that,&rdquo; Woods said. &ldquo;It was tough out there.&rdquo;u00a0&ldquo;It was hard staying steady a couple of times I got blown on my downswing,&rdquo; Woods said. &ldquo;The hard part is getting blown all over the place. There is no such thing as easy tap in.&rdquo; This is the first time the Ocean Course has hosted a PGA Tour event and at 7,676 yards (metres), it the longest course in major championship history. Woods said the &ldquo;sticky&rdquo; grass on the ocean-side course was very different than usual. &ldquo;You can&rsquo;t run the ball up because the grass is too sticky,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo; It is not a typical PGA Championship venue,&rdquo; the former World No 1 said.
