Tiger Woods didn’t blow the field away, but did plenty to stay afloat in his first round of official PGA Tour golf since the coronavirus pandemic shut down the sport in March.
Woods finished with a 1-under 71 on Thursday at the Memorial Tournament at Jack Nicklaus’ Muirfield Village. He currently sits in a tie for 18th place, five shots back from leader Tony Finau.
The round started and ended well for Woods, who birdied two of the first three holes. With Rory McIlory (2-under) and Brooke Koepka (even) in his group, there was plenty of reason to keep an eye on him.
