Woods floored by flu as Cantlay builds up a five-shot lead in Riviera
LOS ANGELES: Patrick Cantlay began with an eagle and never let anyone close to him the rest of the round on Friday. He shot a 6-under 65 to build a five-shot lead at the Genesis Invitational going into a weekend that won’t include Tiger Woods.

Woods made another early exit, this one because of flu symptoms instead of his injured body. He withdrew after six holes and spent the next two hours getting intravenous fluids before leaving Riviera, along with a big chunk of the gallery.
