On yesterday, the first day of the 2020 PGA Championship, for most of his round, Tiger Woods looked as we’ve seen him look so far in 2020. Granted, he hasn’t played a ton of rounds, but Woods put together a solid performance that said he can definitely win this golf tournament. Woods shot a 2-under 68 on Thursday in a Round 1 that saw myriad monstrous names stack the top of the leaderboard. Woods finished a few back of the clubhouse leaders in the morning wave, but he’s in a strong position going into today’s Friday second round.
Native Californian, Woods tees showed off with a 32-footer, for -2. After five straight pars, Woods missed his hole. After a par on #6, 13′ was good to him. A few good rolls, brings him to 68, his lowest first round score in a major since 2012, breaking par for the first time in an opening round at the PGA in five attempts. Bad day 1, but now a very nice start finishing the day with a -2.
