Golf: Woods off to steady start

ABU DHABI:
Tiger Woods got his 2012 season off to a steady start at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, but had to settle for second best in his head-to-head with Rory McIlroy. Woods had a two-under-par 70, three more than McIlroy, but one ahead of world number one Luke Donald. “I hit the ball well all day today,” said Woods. “It was a good ball-striking round. I just had a hard time reading the greens out there. Towards the end, I hit some pretty good putts but overall I got fooled a lot on my reads.”
