Tiger Woods carded an even-par 71 in Thursday's first round of the 2018 Wells Fargo Championship at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Woods, who's playing his first PGA Tour event since finishing 32nd in the Masters last month, recorded three birdies and three bogeys in the opening round. He walked off the course four strokes off the lead pace with the afternoon wave of play ongoing.
The 14-time major champion is seeking his first win since the 2013 Bridgestone Invitational. He came close in March's Valspar Championship, where he tied for second, which raised expectations as part of his latest comeback from lingering back problems.
