Golf: Woods falters in final round

PEBBLE BEACH: Tiger Woods charged into contention at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, only to let the opportunity slip through his fingers. Woods finished tied for 15th after shooting a disappointing final-round three-over par 75. He was four strokes behind Charlie Wi heading into the final round but ended up a distant nine strokes behind winner Phil Mickelson. “What was frustrating is I had a chance,” said Woods. “All I had to do was get off to a good, solid start and I didn’t do that.”
