Tiger Woods Favored to Win Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship 2012
Tiger Woods was an even-odds favorite to win the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship 2012 heading into Sunday’s play. Woods was sharing a portion of the lead with newcomer Robbie Rock, who was listed with 7/1 odds of winning.
"It just seemed like I didn't do a lot of things right but I didn't do a lot of things wrong today, it was just very consistent," Woods said. "You know, made a couple putts here and there … I stayed away from trouble and tried to keep the ball towards the fat side of some of these pins and I think I did a pretty good job."
Woods has performed poorly in recent years since news broke of an ugly series of extra-marital affairs that ultimately resulted in a divorce.
"There's too many guys up there right now. There's a ton of guys with a chance to win," Woods said. "You know, we have not separated ourselves from the field. The field is very bunched. I need to go out there and put together a solid round of golf, and I can't go out there and shoot even par and expect to win. I've got to go out there and go get it."
