Tiger Woods made history when he made his 24th straight cut at the Masters on Friday. Sunday, he made some history he would have rather avoided.
Woods had a 77 on Sunday for what was not only his worst score at the Masters but the worst 72-hole round of his career. It wasn’t as bad as his Saturday when Woods shot a 10-over 82, but Woods will finish last among the 60 golfers who made the cut.
The whole weekend was a challenge, with the weather making Augusta an unpredictable course. Due to delays, Woods had to shoot 23 holes in a ten-hour effort on Friday but made the cut. But the back half of the first tournament he’s finished in over a year wasn’t great.
Early in the round, Woods was betrayed by the woods. He hit his tee shot into the trees, found his lie was unplayable, and ended up with a seven and a triple-bogey. But he still had some moments.
On the 16th hole, Woods acknowledged broadcaster Verne Lundquist, working his 40th and final Masters.
Woods also got a big ovation at the 18th hole. He may be diminished, but even in one of the worst performances of his career, crowds can’t get enough of Woods.
