His short game and putting is superb
Woods opened with a sparkling seven-under-par 65 on the undulating Sherwood Country Club layout and followed up with a 66 and 68 to lead the elite field of 18 by four strokes going into Sunday's final round.
While the former world number one has taken great pains this week to say he is still a work in progress after enduring his worst season as a professional, his peers have been much more forthright.
"His short game and putting is superb, as always," Britain's Graeme McDowell told reporters after carding a 68 in Saturday's third round to lie alone in second at 13-under 203.
"He barely missed a fairway, and that's more like him of course. When the long clubs start misbehaving, that's when he gets into trouble but today he controlled the ball well.
"It was great to play alongside the best player that's ever played," added the Northern Irishman, who was paired with Woods in the final grouping. "It's good to see him playing well."
Britain's Rory McIlroy played with Woods in Friday's second round and was also impressed by the former world number one's form.
"He just played really solid golf," said the 21-year-old. "I haven't watched a lot of him this year but, what I have seen, it looked like mentally he wasn't quite there. Now he's in a better place."
Former United States Ryder Cup captain Paul Azinger has watched the resurgent Woods on television this week and in his view his fellow American was clearly back to his best.
"Tiger is standing the club straight up on (his) practice backswing instead of over-rotating arms and laying (the) club off and around him," Azinger said in a posting on the social network Twitter. "Awesome change.
"His practice follow through is better with hands low and club in front of him. His actual swing is very close to practice routine. He's back!"

Rising star strides
BEIJING -The 2011 Beijing Marathon saw the emergence of a new generation and the comeback of a veteran on Sunday.
Chinese runner Wei Xiaojie finished the race in two hours, 28 minutes and five seconds to win the host country's 20th straight title in the women's event, ahead of Tesemma Yeshi Esayias from Ethiopia and Kenyan veteran Catherine Ndereba.
The 22-year-old, who was exhausted after crossing the finish line, attributed her victory to a strong mindset.
"I was running after my teammate and everything went quite smoothly, but I lost my strength gradually in the last part, and finished the race with just my will power," Wei said.
"Also, I think the key to my success was my peaceful mindset," she said. "My coach told me to forget the rankings instead, conquering myself was the most important thing."
Though the gold was Wei's first medal in an international marathon, she said she was not satisfied with the result.
"I expected to reach the Olympic standard by running within two hours and 27 minutes," said Wei, who hopes to qualify for the London Olympic Games by performing well at the 2012 Chongqing Marathon, a selection event for the Olympics.
Though only finishing third, Ndereba, a silver medalist at the Athens and Beijing Olympic Games, said she was grateful to reach the finish line in Beijing after recovering from a muscle tear.
"First of all, thanks for giving me the chance to run in Beijing," said the 39-year-old, who broke the women's marathon world record in 2001, running 2:18:47 in Chicago.
"I am very happy with the result, because I was injured the whole of last year, and I hadn't completed a marathon since 2009," she said. "I was just hoping to have a good race. I can say I'm really happy with my effort."
Returning to Beijing, where she reaped her second Olympic silver, Ndereba said running around the course reminded her of her glory days, and now she is working hard for a chance to make the London Olympics.
"I'm hoping to keep myself in good health and I hope my federation will consider me to run for my country."

Argentina's Scola 'nervous'
BUENOS AIRES - The Argentine basketball player Luis Scola on Monday said he is "very nervous" due to the ongoing lack of clarity surrounding a conflict in the US National Basketball Association (NBA) conflict which has caused him not to play.
Scola, 31, a power forward player of the NBA Houston Rockets, said he would not rule out the possibility of playing for an Argentine team until the lockout set by the NBA is resolved but agreed it would be unlikely as he would "run into an insurance problem."
"It is a complicated period. At first, it seemed almost fun, but now I am becoming very nervous and I want the conflict to be solved," he said about the conflict in the main basketball league in the world.
Scola also said he had not put any date as to when he will define what to do about his future and pointed out that he "likes to play in the NBA" but that he cannot "be months without playing basketball."
"I need to be in shape and competing. I don't feel like going to the other side, make my family adapt to another country, adapt myself to other rules, another coach. I am not used to it," said the former partner of http://australiasunglass.com/the Chinese player Yao Ming in the Houston Rockets.
