Golf: Tiger takes control at the British Open

10:30 AM

Tiger Woods has a commanding six stroke lead after the third round of the British Open golf championship at St Andrews after shooting a five-under 67.

Woods' three-stroke overnight lead was reduced to only one after his first bogey of the tournament on the second hole.

But he added seven birdies and one more bogey to be 16-under par going into the final round tonight.

David Duval shot a six-under 66 to share second place at 10-under with Denmark's Thomas Bjorn, who carded a four-under 68.
