MARANA, Ariz. — One easy way to keep track of the Accenture Match Play Championship is to look at the practice range.

It was packed on Wednesday, with 64 small sections of divots left by the world's best players. By Thursday afternoon, the range was practically a ghost town as the field was cut down to 16 players after two rounds.

Tiger Woods was on the far left end, dressed in black, ominous as ever.

All the other top players were gone.

Going for his eighth straight PGA Tour victory in a tournament that might be the toughest to win, Woods barreled into the third round with another short day of work. This time the victim was Tim Clark of South Africa, recovering from a neck injury and playing his first tournament since late October. Woods was 5 up through six holes and never reached the 15th tee, winning 5 and 4.

"I played better than I did yesterday, which is great," Woods said. "I've won before in amateur golf and junior golf, won by a large margin, but didn't play well. You don't feel very good going to the next match."

But he sure felt better than Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and the other players among the top eight seeds.

They're going home.

Jim Furyk, the No. 2 seed, was 2 up with four holes to play until Chad Campbell birdied the 15th, rolled in an 18-foot birdie on the 18th to force extra holes, then two-putted for birdie to win on the 19th. It was the seventh time Furyk has played this tournament, and he still hasn't reached the weekend.

Fourth-seeded Phil Mickelson also made an early exit after he made six birdies and gave away four holes with bogeys.

It was the first time in five years he failed to get to the third round.
