Jamie Donaldson posted a nine-under-par 63 for second place at 22 under par with the Welshman earning one million air miles from the sponsor for an ace at the par three 16th.

England's Justin Rose boosted his hopes of finishing next week as European No.1 in shooting a last-day 64 to share third place on 20-under par with Woods, who birdied four of his closing five holes in a five-under-par 67.

Current European No.1 Henrik Stenson shot a 69 for a share of seventh place at 18-under par.
