Tiger Woods returned from his four-month layoff with an impressive round of 4-under 68. Woods shot the best opening round of his Masters career, and he made two eagles on Thursday.
Woods received a huge ovation from the gallery when he came to the first tee for what was surely one of the most anticipated shots in Masters history. He hit a good one.
“I had to hit the ball well and I had to make some putts,” Woods said. “Unfortunately I didn’t putt very good today, otherwise it could have been a very special round.”
Fred Couples is known for his easygoing demeanor, but the 50-year-old has been cleaning up on the Champions Tour this season, winning three times. He proved he can play with the young guys as well, taking the first-round lead with a six-under 66.
