Intro:

Three-time US Open champion Tiger Woods reacts after his worst ever round in the tournament at Chambers Bay.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Tiger Woods (on how he felt after today's round):

"Not very happy, that's for sure. It was a tough day. Got off to a bad start. I stuck that 6-iron in the ground on the first hole, and then just couldn't quite get it turned around today."

"It's one of those things, just got to work through it. I'm trying as hard as I can to do it, and for some reason I just can't get the consistency that I'd like to have out there."

"I fought, I fought hard. And that was my number. I couldn't grind out any harder than that. So that's just the way I played and unfortunately it was a high number today."

"Yeah, it has, because I haven't had enough -- I haven't played enough. I haven't had a rhythm to play. I didn't play much last year and I haven't played much this year. Knee surgeries are pretty easy compared to a back surgery, the recovery time. And for some reason, it's just a lot harder dealing with a nerve than a joint."
