After registering a par or birdie on the first eight holes, Woods missed a putt to the left for a bogey on hole 9 (par 5). He had three birdies in the next five, including consecutive on hole 13 and 14 that pulled him to within one of the lead.
Both Woods’ bogies came on par 5s, but his drives and putting were significantly better than past comeback attempts.
Woods said he thought the round went very well.
