Shot of the day: Woods hit an 8-iron from the right rough 150 yards to set up a 12-foot putt for the last of his nine birdies on the day.

Key stat: McIlroy's bogey-free streak of 29 holes ended when he failed to get up and down out of a bunker at No. 12.

Noteworthy: U.S. PGA champion Martin Kaymer, the world's top-ranked player, and two other major winners from last year - Graeme McDowell (U.S.Open) and Louis Oosthuizen (British) - failed to make the cut at 145.

Quoteworthy: ''I don't really care what anyone else does. I don't need to know.'' - McIlroy, on whether he was worried seeing Woods climb the leaderboard.
