Tiger Woods battled through constant leg pain to fire a two-over par 74 in Thursday’s opening round of the 87th Masters, his worst 18-hole start at Augusta National since 2005.
The 15-time major winner, who owns five green jackets, also shot 74 in round one 18 years ago but recovered to win the title.
This time, however, Woods continues to struggle with the severe leg injuries suffered in a 2021 car crash and could have a fight simply to make the 36-hole cut to the low 50 and level.
