Tiger Woods suffered his worst professional round as he slumped with a 13-over-par 85 on the third day of the Memorial Tournament in Ohio.

The former world number one made the cut by one shot but suffered consecutive double bogeys, six bogeys and finished with a quadruple-bogey eight, the BBC reported.

This performance has left the 14-time major winner in last place on 12 over for the event, which he has won five times.

Woods is 27 shots behind leader Justin Rose, who is three ahead after a 66.World number six Rose posted seven birdies to reach 15 under.

Saturday's round at Muirfield Village, a course at which he tasted victory on eight occasions, was only his third in the 80s.
