(CNN) — Tiger Woods produced “incredible golf” to equal his own course record of 62 at Sherwood Country Club and take the halfway lead at the PGA Tour-sanctioned World Golf Challenge in California.
With ten birdies and no dropped shots, Woods justified his ranking as the top ranked player in the world and had other players expressing their admiration for his efforts.

“It was cool to see that kind of golf,” he told the official PGA Tour website.
