Tiger: Stat of the day

Does Tiger Woods have Firestone Country Club wired? He's won here six times, including the last three he's played here (2005 through 2007). He opened the WGG-Bridgestone Invitational Thursday with a two-under par 68.

The stat: In 10 starts at Firestone, he's never shot higher than 68 in the first round. His best was a 64 in the first round in 2000.
