Follow along for live updates on Woods’s first round and all the other happenings at St. Andrews. He began his first round on Thursday with a double bogey after hitting his second shot into the Swilcan Burn, the course’s famous stream, and then missing a short bogey putt. Woods has had a quiet year inside the ropes as he’s made his way back from a devastating car crash in February 2021.

Tiger Woods has built his summer around The 150th Open at the Old Course at St. Andrews.

He pulled a mid-iron for his approach and produced a crisp strike with a smooth follow-through, but the ball landed on the back portion of the green, some 60 feet past the hole. He tapped in for a disappointing double bogey to begin The 150th Open. He was short-sided on his pitch shot and played to approximately 15 feet left of the hole, leaving a lengthy putt to save par. From 113 yards, Woods' ball landed short of the burn and one-hopped into the water. Woods' lag was magnificent, the ball tracking the whole way before grazing the left edge and settling a foot past. His ball started left of center and he motioned for it to move right; the ball eluded trouble and settled in the short grass. Woods' birdie putt held a solid line but stopped 10 feet short of the hole; he slightly dropped his head as he traversed to mark his ball. His birdie putt was left the whole way, but he tapped in for par, albeit a disappointing one. He buckled his knees in despair before resetting to make the bogey comebacker. He selected putter for his lengthy birdie effort, up and over a mound, but he didn't put enough pace on it; the ball stopped 10 feet short of the hole. From 231 yards, Woods took a fairway metal and produced a high fade, appearing pleased with the strike and walking after it. Hole 5 (par 5, 531 yards): Woods took driver on the reachable par 5, understanding the need to make up some shots quickly if he hopes to work his way back into realistic contention.

Tiger Woods has teed off at St. Andrews. Tracking his first round at the British Open as he seeks his fourth title.

Tiger hit the fairway to the left off the tee. Tiger save the hole for par Tiger hits the tee shot and it lands on the left side of the fairway.

Tiger Woods is back at his favorite golf course in the world. After making the cut at both the Masters and PGA Championship, the 15-time major champion is ...

His scramble game will need to be on point or else this hole could officially ruin the round. Tiger outdrives Max and Matt here on No. 6 as he finds the fairway once again. Not that par is a bad score at the Old Course, but from where he was in the fairway, you’ve got to take advantage. He found the green but left a good 50-plus feet on the bone for birdie and didn’t finish his meal. It’s a front pin here on the second and Tiger sent his one long to the back of the green, leaving a testy putt for birdie (but a birdie putt nonetheless!). Tiger gave this one a good roll but doesn’t pair the pasta with the sauce, leaving a tap-in par. Can’t clean up his par save and that’s yet another dropped shot early in the round. Failed to get that one close and left a lengthy par putt that slides past the cup. He takes his drop from the water and gives his fourth a good run at the hole and nearly chips in. He saves the bogey putt to avoid a second double in three holes, but that was a compounding of mistakes that we’ve seen quite a few times since his return at the Masters this spring. Sure, his ball was in a divot but Tiger still put a good swing and got clean contact on his approach that came up short of the green and one-hops into the burn running in front of the green. Iron off the tee and Tiger finds the fairway down the left side. After making the cut at both the Masters and PGA Championship, the 15-time major champion is teeing it up for just the third time this week at the 2022 British Open following his single-car accident that nearly cost him his leg last year.

Tiger Woods' opening round at the Open Championship got off to a disastrous start as he double bogeyed the 1st hole.

With a wedge in his hands, Woods blasted his ball out of the divot on his approach shot, sending sand flying into his eyes. When Woods tapped in the ensuing putt, the scoreboard reflected a sobering reality. After dropping short of the hazard and pitching his fourth shot to three feet, he left himself with just over three feet for bogey. The announcers made note of a slight smirk on Woods’ face as he approached and saw where his ball had ended up. Woods tipped his cap as the crowd exploded in applause. If Woods was going to win a major in 2022, the Old Course would almost certainly be the venue.

Tiger makes his triumphant return to St. Andrews for the 2022 Open Championship. Here's how he has fared at the historic course:

69 (3 under) 67 (5 under) 69 (3 under) 66 (6 under) 67 (5 under) 66 (6 under) 14 under 67 (5 under) 5 under 19 under 11 under 5 under

Tiger Woods skipped the U.S. Open to make sure he was ready for The Open at St. Andrews. We have you covered for Round 1.

His first putt, a 35-footer for birdie, proved his struggles with speed on the greens are ongoing. He knew he missed it when he hit and started to walk after it as he went by on the low side. Woods could not help but laugh as he walked off the ninth green. And he had the one-handed follow-through at the seventh. He has done that a lot to start The Open. Another poor iron shot was followed by another poor lag putt. His approach shot settled forever from the hole. Instead of a legitimate chance at getting a shot back, Woods had to play defense and safely navigated a two-putt par. He had just 109 yards in and missed the green short and right. On the hard ground, it spun back and settled 24 yards from the hole. But Woods had a club too much and flew the flag by 50-60 feet. Then his opening tee shot, a trademark stinger, landed in a divot in the middle of the miles-wide fairway at the first hole. He then chunked his second shot from the tough lie into the burn in front of the green.

Phil Mickelson said he respects Tiger Woods' opinion on LIV Golf after the 15-time major champion said those who joined the breakaway series had "turned ...

"I actually thought I had a great reception on the first tee, to be honest," Poulter said. It's just, I couldn't be happier." "I couldn't be happier. He carded a 3-under 69 on Thursday and said he "didn't hear one" when asked about the booing. "I made the right decision for me," Mickelson said. We both kind of agreed that it would be best if I didn't."

Despite Tiger Woods critique, Phil Mickelson says he “couldn't be happier” with LIV Golf.

“I made the right decision for me,” Mickelson said. It’s just, I couldn’t be happier.” “I couldn’t be happier. Mickelson is part of a large contingent of LIV players at the Open, after the R&A decided last month that any player who had qualified for this year’s tournament could play. I believe it’s the right thing.” We both kind of agreed that it would be best if I didn’t.”

"I made the right decision for me," Mickelson said. LIV Golf drama has been bubbling in the background of major events for a couple of months now. It's just, I couldn't be happier." He cares only that he feels comfortable playing for the upstart tour. Tiger Woods made his opinion of LIV Golf very clear ahead of The Open in 2022. Been a lot of disagreement there," Woods said of Mickelson's comments.

The Sporting News is following Tiger as he makes his way through the legendary Old Course at St. Andrews. Follow along with us.

11:54 a.m.: Tiger hates his approach (again), as he made apparent with a look of disappointment. He's on the fairway and has avoided the bunker. Seems to take a more cautious approach and set himself up for a lag-putt birdie on the green. Tiger's frustrated as he picks the ball out of the hole following a par. 2:28 p.m.: Tiger hits a high, arching bomb down the fairway on the par-5 14th. 3:25 p.m.: Tiger sets himself up nicely for a second birdie in as many holes, shooting straight down the center of the fairway and landing center of the green, 21 feet from the pin. Another solid, long putt from off the green sets him up with a makeable par putt, but Tiger's struggles on the green continue. 3:39 p.m.: Tiger begins the 17th hole with a solid shot off the tee. 3:45 p.m.: Tiger's drive actually rode into the rough, but he had a good lie. 3:55 p.m.: Tiger's birdie putt on 17 gets close to the hole, but he doesn't quite get it there. 3:59 p.m.: Tiger's drive off the tee is a good one, but it took a knock off a mound on the course and couldn't roll over the slope onto the green. 4:08 p.m.: Tiger couldn't make the birdie putt, as he sent it just by the hole.

On the course for the first time since the third round of the PGA Championship in May, Woods' score across the 18 holes was the highest of his career as a ...

But I didn't feel like I hit it that bad. "It feels like I didn't really hit it that bad. "It's just the way it goes. I had my chances to turn it around and get it rolling the right way, and I didn't do it." Consecutive bogeys on Nos. 3 and 4 put Woods at 4 over through his first four holes, and after making two straight pars, it felt as if the 46-year-old was finally settling into his own. "And then I compound problems with my bad speed on the greens.

Tiger Woods a signé un début de premier tour désastreux au British Open. La légende américaine, 46 ans, a réalisé deux doubles bogeys sur les neuf premiers trous jeudi. Double vainqueur du tournoi, il a réalisé deux doubles bogeys aux troisième et quatrième trous qui l'ont amené à quatre au-dessus du par, puis un bogey après avoir raté un petit putt sur le septième green. Il devra remonter parmi les 70 premiers d'ici vendredi soir pour passer le cut.

Tiger Woods finished the first round of the Open Championship with a 6-over 78 Thursday to match his second-worst round at golf's oldest major.

His long, often silent waits at tees gave him time to ponder a slew of erratic shots on the front nine, which at least ended with a birdie after getting up-and-down from behind the green. It was a sign of things to come. When he turned back around, he saw his ball bounce into the burn guarding the green. The 46-year-old Woods said this week he has no idea how long he’ll be able to compete physically at the highest level because of his battered body. After all, he is playing on a right leg pieced together from a February 2021 car crash. Then came a three-putt for bogey at the third hole.

Tiger Woods a connu une première journée à oublier au 150^e Omnium britannique, disputé à St. Andrews. Pourtant un habitué du terrain, lui qui a gagné deux ...

La dernière fois que le tournoi a été disputé au Old Course en 2015, Woods n’avait pas été en mesure d’éviter le couperet après des rondes de 76 et 75. Dès les premiers trous, on pouvait déjà s’attendre à une journée pénible pour celui qui a triomphé trois fois à l’Omnium britannique. Une ronde à jeter aux oubliettes pour Tiger Woods à l'Omnium britanniqueGolf jeudi, 14 juil.

Présent à St. Andrews, en Écosse, le célèbre golfeur Tiger Woods a bien mal entamé l'Omnium britannique en remettant une carte de 78 (+6), jeudi.

Woods a débuté en commettant un double boguey dès le premier trou, avant d’en ajouter un second au septième fanion. Dans les bas-fonds du classement, l’Américain devra sortir un lapin de son chapeau s’il souhaite éviter le couperet. Présent à St. Andrews, en Écosse, le célèbre golfeur Tiger Woods a bien mal entamé l’Omnium britannique en remettant une carte de 78 (+6), jeudi, au terme de la ronde initiale.

Champion du tournoi en 2000, 2005 et 2006, Woods a commis un double boguey au premier trou et un autre au septième.

L'Écossais Paul Lawrie, champion de l'Omnium britannique en 1999, a été retenu pour effectuer le coup de départ protocolaire. Elle était posée sur son socle, jeudi matin, en bordure du premier tertre de départ à l'occasion du coup d'envoi du prestigieux tournoi majeur. Il a obtenu deux autres top-10 en carrière à l'Omnium britannique, soit en 2015 et 2018. Woods a montré de la frustration après avoir raté un court roulé au 12e trou; au trou suivant, il a eu un sourire de dépit en laissant filer l'occasion d'inscrire une normale. Il a raté un court roulé au premier trou; six trous plus tard, il a envoyé sa balle dans une fosse de sable du trou voisin. Champion du tournoi en 2000, 2005 et 2006, Woods a commis un double boguey au premier trou et un autre au septième.

Après une première ronde catastrophique, le Tigre est à 14 coups du meneur, Cameron Young.

Il y a un -8, un -6, un -5… À 14 coups de Young, il est classé parmi les derniers. À ce jour sont pris en compte le classement mondial, dont les joueurs du LIV risquent d’être privés, ou encore des tournois qualificatifs des circuits de la PGA et européen, dont les joueurs du LIV sont exclus.

Playing in the afternoon wave, which had windier and much more difficult conditions than what the morning group faced, Tiger Woods carded a 6-over 78 in the ...

Looking at it at the beginning of the year, end of last year when I was rehabbing, trying to see if I could do it, but somehow I was able to play two of the major championships in between then and now, which was great. And just didn't do a very good job of it." Walking off the green, Woods smiled, licked his finger and motioned it like a slam dunk. He made another bogey with a three-putt on the par-4 13th. Then Woods made another birdie on the par-4 10th hole. He drove his 379-yard tee shot through the green, chipped to about eight feet and made a birdie putt to move to 5-over. "It feels like I didn't really hit it that bad," Woods said. Woods, a two-time winner of The Open at St. Andrews in 2000 and 2005, was tied for 146th among 156 players in the field after the first round. "Guys did it [Thursday] and that's my responsibility [Friday] to go ahead and do it. Need to do it." But I didn't really feel like I hit it that bad, but I ended up in bad spots. By the time it ended about six hours later, Woods had carded a 6-over 78.

The former champion, twice a winner at St Andrews, was struggling from the first fairway and shot a six-over-par 78.

For those seeking to take something positive from the day, there were a few moments: a smile to his caddie after saving par at 12 and a mammoth 412 yard-drive on the par-five 14th, where he would make birdie. The frustrating thing is that St Andrews is a place that intrinsically suits him. Having reached the fringe of the green in two at the par-five 5th, Woods rolled a putt up a ridge and 30ft past the hole. This was always on the calendar to hopefully be well enough to play it. And that’s my responsibility tomorrow is to go ahead and do it. “It was a lot easier today, physically, than it has been the other two [majors this year], for sure. But he is not in the habit of making excuses. It is not unreasonable to say that Woods’s hopes of an unlikely fourth Open title were extinguished as early as the 1st hole. The gallery fell quiet, and after back-to-back bogeys on the 3rd and 4th holes, Woods was four over. It’s an interesting combo and I struggled. Physically at least, he seems to be in much better shape. Nobody here balances history and destiny quite like Tiger. What has been before, and what could come again.

The historic 150th British Open had been circled on Tiger's calendar for months, but an opening-hole double bogey led to a disappointing day at the Old ...

And that's my responsibility tomorrow is to go ahead and do it. Woods ball landed short of the water and trickled in. And I hit a good shot. As for the opening-hole double bogey, Woods said: “Hit a good tee shot down 1, ended up right in the middle of a fresh divot. Woods made two double bogeys during his round along with five bogeys and three birdies. “Looks like I'm going to have to shoot 66 tomorrow to have a chance (to make the 36-hole cut, which is top 70 players and ties)," he said. But I didn't really feel like I hit it that bad but I ended up in bad spots. And as I said, I had my chances to turn it around and get it rolling the right way and I didn't do it." They looked faster than what they were putting, and I struggled with it." “It’s just a different dynamic than we were accustomed to," he said. It feels like I didn't really hit it that bad. But the beginning certainly did not help.

Tiger Woods marche mieux, mais son jeu a flanché jeudi au premier tour du British Open sur le parcours de Saint Andrews où l'Américain a rendu une carte de ...

Son putt pour eagle n'est pas passé loin mais à côté quand même, son putt pour birdie est passé tout près sans tomber et il a conclu sur un par. Il a encore enchaîné des bogeys aux trous 3 et 4, puis concédé un second double bogey au 7. Et le par 4 du trou 18 a été à l'image de son calvaire: à quelques centimètres près son premier coup ne s'est pas stabilisé sur le plateau du drapeau et la balle est retombée en arrière en bas d'une bute.

Smile” came the plea from a wee lad in the three-rows-deep gallery as Tiger Woods, stony-faced and with his head bowed, slowly approached the fourth tee at ...

His long, often silent waits at tees gave him time to ponder a slew of erratic shots on the front nine, which at least ended with a birdie after getting up-and-down from behind the green. “I still struggled with hitting the putts hard enough,” he said. It summed up his round that he could only make par from there. It was a sign of things to come. Woods displayed more emotions coming back, his competitive juices perhaps starting to flow. The 46-year-old Woods said this week he has no idea how long he’ll be able to compete physically at the highest level because of his battered body. “Either just don’t hit it flat (or) don’t blade it,” Woods said. “Looks like I’m going to have to shoot 66 tomorrow to have a chance,” Woods said. And I am,” Woods said. When he turned back around, he saw his ball bounce into the stream guarding the green. After all, he is playing on a right leg pieced together from a February 2021 car crash. Then came a three-putt for bogey at the third hole.

Tiger Woods opened with a double bogey at No. 1 in his first round of The Open en route to a 6-over 78.

Woods got rid of the jacket, with the spitting rain subsiding after a dreary early morning. He had no chance to reach the green and simply pitched out. When it finally stopped, it was 7 feet from the 13th hole but 117 feet from the fifth. The ball settled about 6 feet from the pin. Well, he slammed his club into the ground while the approach was still in the air. It would not be the last time he was upset on the hole. Although he had just 101 yards in for his second shot, Woods was not messing around with a front-left, tucked pin at third. Total for the tournament: 6 over Woods, walking with his hands in his pockets and shoulders tense, appears to be cold on a chilly morning in Scotland. Early in his round, though, his swing seems free. Time off after he had to withdraw from the PGA Championship and skip the U.S. Open. But he's here.

Masters champion Scottie Scheffler is three back at 8-under-par after shooting his second straight 68 on Friday. And Australian Adam Scott, the Masters champion ...

The 25-year-old Young had never even made a cut at a major until he finished third in May’s PGA Championship. He trails Smith by four shots at the moment, while first-round leader Cameron Young is two back. Dustin Johnson, one of the more high-profile players to resign his PGA membership and join the breakaway LIV Golf tour, had earlier rocketed into first with a 5-under-par 67.

After an opening-round, 6-over 78 at The 150th Open, Tiger Woods will need to go low Friday in order to advance to the weekend at the Old Course at St.

Hole 3 (par 4, 392 yards): Woods split the center of fairway with driver off the tee, leaving a short iron from 101 yards. His par putt lipped out, though, and he tapped in for his first bogey of the day. From 240 yards, Woods selected a fairway metal and played a fade that landed on the green but past the hole, rolling out to leave a lengthy eagle putt of 117 feet. Hole 6 (par 4, 412 yards): Woods took driver and slipped again on impact, the ball sailing right and finding a gnarly fairway pot bunker. He started his birdie putt well right of the hole; the ball rode a ridge down toward the cup, coming to rest 4 feet short. Hole 12 (par 4, 348 yards): Woods pulled driver off the tee and pulled it slightly left, the ball landing in fescue but bouncing into a lighter patch of rough. Hole 7 (par 4, 383 yards): Woods selected fairway metal and played a soft fade that safely split the fairway, maintaining good balance throughout the swing. The 82-time PGA TOUR winner played a low bump-and-run with a mid-iron, the ball scooting on a line toward the cup but not carrying enough pace, coming to rest some 20 feet short of the hole. The ball landed on the fairway just in front of the green and released onto the putting surface, settling hole-high with a 15-foot birdie look. On his approach with a short iron, his distance control was sublime, the ball landing near hole-high and settling there to leave some 15 feet for birdie. Hole 18 (par 4, 343 yards): Stepping to the final tee box of his week at The 150th Open, Woods savored the moment before selecting a fairway metal. The crowd roared as Woods crossed the Swilcan Bridge; he removed his cap and smiled in appreciation.

In what is likely his final Open Championship at St. Andrews, Tiger Woods missed the cut after shooting 9 over through the first two rounds of the ...

"People have no idea what I have to go through and the hours of the work on the body, pre- and post-[round], each and every single day, to do what I just did. And then you think about playing more events on top of that, it's hard enough just to do what I did." He shot 9-over 79 in the third round, his worst score at the PGA Championship. "I understand being more battle-hardened, but it's hard just to walk and play 18 holes," Woods said. "But I don't know if I will be physically able to play back here again when it comes back around. But just to hear the ovations getting louder and louder and louder, I felt that as I was coming in [this year]. The people knew that I wasn't going to make the cut at the number I was. Just to have him out here playing golf is pretty special for all of us." I'll be able to play future British Opens, yes, but eight years' time, I doubt if I'll be competitive at this level." It might not be until late November, when he hosts the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, which benefits his foundation and other charities. "If it is [the end], it would be a pretty sad day," Hatton said. After his round on Friday, he acknowledged that it might have been his last Open at St. Andrews -- but said it wasn't his final one altogether. Woods, a three-time winner of The Open, including in 2000 and 2005 at St. Andrews, won't be around for the 150th anniversary celebration this weekend.

Tiger Woods has finished what could be his last competitive round at a British Open on the Old Course.

“To me it felt like this might have been my last British Open here at St Andrews. And the fans, the ovation and the warmth, it was an unbelievable feeling, I understand what Jack and Arnold (Palmer) had gone through in the past. “The people knew that I wasn’t going to make the cut,” Woods said. And that to me was ... just the respect. All he said he could think about was whether to hit 3-wood or 5-wood. “It was amazing. Justin Thomas was on the first tee and nodded to Woods. It was incredible. Woods gave them little to celebrate on what might be his final round at St. Andrews. He only had four reasonable birdie chances. “But the ovations got louder as I was coming home. Felt like the whole tournament was right there.” No one has ever won an Open at St. Andrews three times, and Woods wasn't about to change that. The R&A hasn't announced the rotation that far out.

"I don't know if I'll be physically able to play another British Open here at St. Andrews," Tiger Woods said.

Woods has won 15 major championships since he turned pro in 1996. He was visibly emotional as he crossed the Swilcan Bridge to the 18th hole. "I don't know if I'll be physically able to play another British Open here at St. Andrews," he said, according to NBCUniversal's Golf Channel.

Sadly, for Tiger Woods and countless golf fans everywhere, the legendary golfer isn't going to play the weekend at the 150th Open Championship.
