Woods survives scare to battle into second round of WGC World Match Play February 22, 2012 -- Updated 2306 GMT (0706 HKT) Tiger Woods is all smiles after closing out Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano in Arizona. Tiger Woods battles into second round of WGC Match Play Championship Woods beats Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano 1-up in Arizona PGA champion Keegan Bradley powers through with easy win over Geoff Ogilvy World No.1 and defending champion Luke Donald goes out to Ernie Els (CNN) -- Tiger Woods battled into the second round of the WGC Match Play Championship in Arizona Wednesday with a last hole win over Spaniard Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano. Woods is searching for his first win on the PGA Tour since 2009 at an event he has won three times, but neither player was at their best in a topsy-turvy match. Fernandez-Castano, making his debut in the elite 64-strong field, birdied the first two holes to go two up before 14-time major winner Woods hit back to win three holes in four. The American missed a short par putt on the ninth to go two up before his opponent hit back as Woods went double bogey-bogey at the 10th and 11th to fall behind again. Woods squared the match with a birdie at the par-4 15th and took the lead with a par at the short 16th. One-up playing the last, Woods had to conjure a miraculous escape from a bunker to salvage his par and close out the match. He will next play fellow American Nick Watney, who was a convincing winner over British Open champion Darren Clarke of Northern Ireland by 5 and 4. "We had some big (momentum) swings," Woods told Sky Sports "I'm very fortunate to move on." The big shock of the first round saw World No.1 and defending champion Luke Donald thrashed 5 and 4 by South African veteran Ernie Els. Donald was below his best while Els, the lowest-ranked player in the field, holed a string of putts to close out the match and progress to the last 32. In other matches finishing early, U.S. PGA champion Keegan Bradley beat Geoff Ogilvy of Australia 4 and 3. "I played about as good as I can," the in-form Bradley told Sky Sports. Youngsters Ryo Ishikawa of Japan and Italian Matteo Manassero also went through as well as Scottish pair Martin Laird and Qatar Open winner Paul Lawrie. England's Robert Rock, who held off Woods to win in Abu Dhabi last month, continued his fine form this season with a 1-up win over Australian Adam Scott to mark his first appearance in a WGC event.
