Good to see Tiger back in action. 3 birds 3 bogies even par. Missed an Ace by a foot. Good for the game if he at least makes the cuts and even better if he's relevant on Sunday's.

Tiger needs to start banging some caucasian gutter trash if he wants to get back on his game.

im already sick of him, and the media, again. last night on tsn sprtcentre, they spent 5 minutes on tigers day. he finished the day tied for 88th. five minutes spent on a guy whos tied for 88th. not one word on the guys who were leading. not even a mention. like he was the only guy who played.

To be fair, I think it was 84th....

Just curious, but how much time does tsn usually give to the first round of a non major in late January? I understand the Tiger hate, but he's basically the only story until the cut.

We are overwhelmed the same way with mcdavid talk so it's easy to bristle the same way when guys like tiger get the same treatment.
It's way too much.

Tiger is currently hitting only 33% fairways and 55% Greens. Ouch.

Well his short game has saved his ass and isn't that what golfs all about? Let's face it golf ratings have suffered since Tiger went away even though there are a plethora of young talented players out there I don't see any of them dominating like Tiger did. He was a once in a generation Gretzky Jordan type of performer. Even in his prime when he didn't play those tournaments TV ratings were lower than when he did play.

Yes Tigers short game is good, probably out of necessity. His full swing is yet again causing him to scramble his way to par. But honestly this time, he’s doing the right thing by dialing it back a bit with full swings. He can’t keep up with these other kids distance, and I saw him once lay up on a par 5 yesterday. ( forgot which hole)
I’m interested to see how far he can take his new swing and strategies. He just needs to start hitting fairways or it will be over quick.

He is done. Trying to rebuild your entire swing, again, at age 40 just isnt going to work. He may be 'good' again, but he will never be elite...The Tiger 'aura' is gone and that mystique has been shattered. He is more prey now, than predator.

Some dolt screamed while Tiger was putting. I hate those chumps who still think its cute. Wrong place, wrong time. The proper time is in Phoenix, where its encouraged, and adds life to the event, not when its unexpected like that.

Beer and golf do mix in my league but there's an A hole in every Pro crowd. I see everyone is taking pictures with their phones now. Doesn't the clicking bother the Pros? When I went to PGA Championship at Oak Hill 2013 you were given a yellow ticket attached to your badge if you used your phone too close to the players. 2 of those and you were gone.
