Tiger Woods got off to a solid start in defense of his Arnold Palmer Invitational title Thursday morning, shooting a 3-under-par 69 at the Bay Hill Club to put himself among the leaders during the first round.
Woods, the defending champion, who is trying for his eighth victory at this tournament, made an eagle, four birdies and three bogeys but continued the solid putting that was on display at the WGC-Cadillac Invitational, where two weeks ago he had a career-best 100 putts over 72 holes in a victory.
Woods trailed Justin Rose, who shot a 7-under 65.
