Woods has 2-stroke clubhouse lead in Dubai

Tiger Woods shot a 7-under 65 to take a two-stroke clubhouse lead in the first round of the Dubai Desert Classic. "I had two good days of practice the last couple days and started to hit the ball a lot better than I did last week," Woods said after the bogey-free round at the Emirates Golf Club. Woods, going for a fifth straight tournament victory, won the Buick Invitational at Torrey Pines last week. Woods, the 2006 Dubai winner, was plagued by poor putting last year when he finished third.
