Lake Buena Vista, Fla. ? Tiger Woods took the suspense out of his bid to tie the PGA Tour record for consecutive cuts. Vijay Singh made sure that wasn’t the case for the money title.

Woods made it look simple Thursday with a 6-under 66 on the Palm course. The bogey-free round left him three strokes behind Brenden Pappas in the Funai Classic at Disney and poised to match Byron Nelson’s 55-year-old record of consistency.

Woods also is aiming for a record fifth straight PGA Tour money title, but that might not be so easy.

Singh, who is second on the money list by $171,239, is playing the best golf of his career and has become a regular atop the leaderboard with top-10 finishes in seven of his last eight tournaments.

The big Fijian had an 8-under 64 on the traditionally tougher Magnolia course, leaving him in a tie for second with Pat Perez and two-time Disney winner John Huston.

Rocco Mediate, Dan Forsman and David Peoples were another stroke back.

Woods appears to be playing well, and considering he had a half-dozen birdie putts that grazed the edge of the cup, his 66 was about the worst score he could have shot.

“I played real solid all day and kept myself out of trouble,” Woods said. “I just did not make any putts coming home. I didn’t put them in there tight, so realistically, they were not great chances.”

The cut streak — the PGA Tour counts 23 events he played that did not have cuts — has been nearly six years in the making.
