Woods struggles in Buick

? Coming off one of the longest breaks in his career, Tiger Woods might get another one sooner than he would like.

Woods went south on the easier North Course at Torrey Pines, hitting only one fairway and having to scramble for a birdie on his final hole for a 1-under 71 on Thursday in the Buick Invitational. That left him six shots behind Brandt Jobe and Thomas Levet, but he will be around the cut line today playing the South Course, which was four strokes harder.

Jobe made seven birdies – all but one of them outside 15 feet – for a 7-under 65 and was joined atop the leaderboard by Levet, who also played a bogey-free round.
