Tiger Woods Is on the Course at the P.G.A. Championship

At that tournament, he was limping and seemed to struggle to crouch fully to line up putts.

Woods started on the 10th hole on Thursday and birdied it with a three-foot putt after a flawless chip.

He birdied the 14th as well with a 15-footer. But he found the rough and a bunker on 15 and could not get up and down, falling back to one-under.

On the 18th, a difficult hole, he found a greenside bunker with a poor iron shot and missed a 20-foot putt to fall back to even.

That started a poor stretch, and he made two more bogeys at 1 — a tee shot into the rough behind a tree was the culprit — and 2 — where he knocked a long putt from the fringe 10 feet past and missed the comebacker.

Woods struck back with a birdie on 3, making a long putt that got his big gallery going. But he gave that right back with a bad bunker shot on 4, rolling over and off the green and winding up with another bogey.
