Tiger Woods Return to the Greens Was Impressive

Tiger Woods returned to Georgia’s Augusta National for his first competitive round of golf against the world’s best players since Nov. 15, 2020.

Woods shot a 1-under 71 in the first round of The Masters on Thursday to put him in a solid position.

Tiger couldn’t quite bend over to read the putts on the course’s tricky greens, but there otherwise was little to suggest he’d been severely injured in a car crash.

Later, he said, “I felt good. Once the adrenaline kicks in and I get into my own little world, I knew I should be able to handle business.”
