The 48-year-old’s previous worst scores both came in 2022, when he shot 78 in both the third and fourth rounds.
A day after setting a tournament record in the Masters, Tiger Woods suffered an unwanted milestone at Augusta National.
Woods followed a bogey on the fourth with a superb birdie on the difficult fifth, but then bogeyed the sixth and ran up a double bogey on the seventh. Woods made five more bogeys and a birdie on the 13th in a back nine of 40 in what was his 99th round in the Masters. “I didn’t have a very good warm-up session and I kept it going all day today. Just hit the ball in all the places that I know I shouldn’t hit it. And I missed a lot of putts. Easy, makeable putts. I missed a lot of them.”Woods, who had played just 24 holes of competitive golf in 2024 before this week, added: “It’s just that I haven’t competed and played much.
