Tiger Woods spotted making ‘very rare’ decision immediately after shooting 74 in US Open first round
Tiger Woods sits at four-over par heading into the second round of the US Open.
Tiger Woods took the ‘very rare’ decision to step on the range after finishing his first round at the US Open in a bid to find something heading into Friday.
The 15-time major champion has been on the comeback trail in 2024, but has been limited to only playing the big events.
He’s been working to improve his physical fitness for major weeks in an attempt to keep making cuts and proving that he’s still capable of competing with the best.
The American golf icon got off to the perfect start on Thursday with a birdie on his opening hole.
Woods was also seen working with Justin Thomas and even giving his compatriot some pointers.
The 48-year-old will now face an uphill battle to make the cut into the weekend with only the top 60 players including ties making it.
But Woods appeared happy physically after his first round and hopes to step it up on Friday.
“I’m physically getting better as the year has gone on,” he said.
“I just haven’t been able to play as much because I just don’t want to hurt myself pre, then I won’t be able to play in the major championships.
