LOS ANGELES, Feb 16 — Tiger Woods saw a lot of good, a lot of indifferent and one outright shocker of a shank on the way to a one-over par 72 yesterday in his first US PGA Tour round in more than 10 months.

The 15-time major champion, who hadn’t played since withdrawing from the third round at the Masters last April with painful plantar fasciitis, teed it up for the first time in 2024 at the Genesis Invitational at The Riviera Country Club, where he had to work to salvage a bogey at 18 after shanking his second shot from the fairway.
