Masters 2012: Tiger Woods Makes Par On Hole 16, Remains 2-Under

Tiger Woods is still chasing the leader on Thursday at the 2012 Masters in Augusta. Woods is doing a fine job of setting the pace, although a couple of long approaches have forced him to settle for par on at least a few holes. He has still managed to recover well when going off-course and remains just a few strokes off the lead.

On hole 16, Woods found the green off the tee on the par-3, but wound up on the very edge of it, looking at a very long putt. Woods was unable to sink it and a two-putt later, he had par to keep pace.

Henrik Stenson was the overall leader as Woods made par on 16, but Stenson ran into immense difficulty on the final hole of his opening round and lost four strokes on his round.
