I hit a lot of good shots, and on top of that I putted well at the same time ... it was a nice little combination,” said Woods, who made five birdies from 12 feet or longer. "I hit the ball well enough to probably shoot maybe one or two more.”Australia’s John Senden and South African Louis Oosthuizen were two shots back after carding matching five-under 66s while big names Luke Donald, Dustin Johnson and Ian Poulter were among five players in the clubhouse a further shot back.Woods, the 2006 champion at this event, played the back nine first and wasted little time making a move.After his tee shot at the par-three 11th landed 12 feet from the hole, Woods coolly drained the birdie putt for some early confidence on the greens. Two holes later Woods sank a 19-footer that put him at two-under par.He came within inches of an eagle from 42 feet on the 18th but took the birdie, the first of six on the trot, including a 12-footer on his 11th hole and a 15-footer on his 12th.The heat dissipated a little over his final four holes as Woods missed a chance for a seventh consecutive birdie before scrambling for pars on the seventh and eighth holes. Overton did his best to keep pace and, after going two-under through 11 holes, put together his own birdie binge by closing out his round with six birdies over the final seven holes to join Woods atop the leaderboard.The leading 70 players on the FedExCup points list after this event advance to the BMW Championship, with the top 30 then advancing to the Tour Championship finale in Atlanta where the overall points winner pockets a $10 million bonus.
