The 29-year-old American opened with a birdie, added an eagle at the par-5 second and birdied the par-3 sixth, par-5 eighth and par-4 ninth as well.
The Masters record front-nine score of 30 was set by Johnny Miller in 1975 and matched by Greg Norman in 1988, KJ Choi in 2004 and Phil Mickelson in 2009 before Woodland joined that group in this year’s third round at the year’s first major championship.
