Tiger Woods has admitted that he was delighted to achieve his "goal" after he completed his second round at the US PGA Championships.

Woods recorded the second-lowest round on a blustery second day in South Carolina, and he revealed that he had achieved the target that he had set himself before he began his second round.

He told pgatour.com: "I thought going out today, anything that was even-par or better was going to be a good score.

"That was my goal, so I went out there today and I accomplished that.

"I'm playing better to where I am going to give myself chances in major golf championships."

The 14-time major winner currently shares the lead for the tournament with Vijay Singh and Carl Pettersson.
