Dubai, United Arab Emarites ? Tiger Woods moved into position for his second straight victory, birdieing the 18th hole for a 5-under 67 and a share of the third-round lead Saturday in the Dubai Desert Classic. Anders Hansen had a 69 to match Woods at 16-under 200.

Retief Goosen, the co-leader after two rounds, shot a 70 to fall one stroke behind. Three more players were two shots back – Miguel Angel Jimenez (66), defending champion Ernie Els (68) and Australian left-hander Richard Green (69).

Woods, coming a victory last week in the PGA Tour’s Buick Invitational, started the day two shots behind Hansen and Goosen and fell three back at the turn. Hansen stayed steady on the back nine, but Goosen bogeyed three holes to fall off the pace. Woods birdied Nos. 10, 13 and 14 with short-range putts.
