Tiger Woods fought back into contention at The Masters today by shooting a 5-under-par 67. Unfortunately for Tiger, his seven shots back heading into the final round were just too much to overcome, even for the world's greatest golf.
Woods, who was going for his fifth Green Jacket and first since 2005, started his round trailing 21-year-old leader Rory McIlroy by seven but came roaring back into the lead after eagling the eighth.
After shooting a 31 on the front nine, Tiger played the back nine even, and finished one back of the lead after parring the 18th hole.
Tiger still has a chance to win, but it will take bogeys from several golfers, as there is a second-place log jam at -10.
Woods hasn't won a PGA Tournament in almost two years and a win at Augusta today would also be his first major victory after trailing after three rounds.
Australian Adam Scott is now the leader at -11 with three holes to play. I'll have an update on the final holes of The 75th Masters later in the day. Check back to see who takes home the first Major of the year.
