With an elite field chasing the lead, Tiger Woods<\/a> decided to play keep-away in Akron, Ohio.<\/p>\n

Already up by a staggering seven shots through 36 holes thanks to a career-tying best of 61 in the second round, Woods shot a solid 2-under 68 on Saturday in the Bridgestone Invitational to maintain that same seven-stroke lead.<\/p>\n

It was as if he was turning around and daring the world\u2019s best players to come after him. No one really could.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, today was a day that I didn\u2019t quite have it,\u201d said Woods, who was at 15-under 195. \u201cBut I scored. And that\u2019s the name of the game, posting a number, and I did today. I grinded my way around that golf course.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now he\u2019s only 18 holes away from making even more history in a career of historic accomplishments. He\u2019ll be competing against the record book as much as the elite field.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of tough to pick up seven or eight shots on Tiger around here,\u201d said Henrik Stenson, a distant second after a 67. \u201cIt would take something spectacular on my behalf or any of the other guys around me, and obviously a very, very poor round for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woods, by the way, is 41-2 when leading after 54 holes in a PGA Tour event<\/a>. \u2013 espn<\/a><\/p>\n
