A plane trailing the banner “Tiger – did you mean bootyism?” twice circled overhead as Tiger Woods finally returned to golf today.
Out for nearly five months following a sex scandal and now practising Buddhism again as he tries to make amends, Woods appeared to take no notice and was given rapturous ovations by the crowd as he parred his first hole since November 15.
Not one boo or hiss could be heard above the noise of applause and cheers and after being called to play, Woods hit such a sweet driver that he gave a familiar twirl of the club before bending over to pick up the tee.
It found the fairway and he then struck his approach to within 15 feet of the flag, but could not make the birdie putt on a hole where he has had only three in his Masters career.
As he continued on his way – and his search for a 15th major – it was hard to believe that the man he was chasing at the top of the leaderboard was none other than 60-year-old Tom Watson.
Two days after telling Jack Nicklaus that Augusta National had become too tough for him, Watson revived memories of last year’s Open by managing a five-under-par 67.
It equalled the best round of 119 he has now played in a championship he won in 1977 and 1981.
One behind in second place was Europe’s current number one Lee Westwood. The world number four, out in 35, added further birdies on the 12th, 13th and 15th.
Fellow Englishman Paul Casey, in-form Ernie Els and defending champion Angel Cabrera were in the group two back and 16-year-old Italian Matteo Manassero, the youngest player in Masters history thanks to his British Amateur win last June, was going brilliantly well too at two under alongside Westwood.

I’ve ordered form brownies.com, and juniors cheesecake through QVC. I’d like to know what site has VERY good desserts I could order that are truly worth it!
Can’t help notice the amount of man u supporters go on about the price of Glen J. but remind me how much did Nani cost and what has he done?@ Gareth – After 2 years I think “showing potential” is a pretty weak excuse! And weren’t Chelsea trying to buy him back?
I know it’s “
it looks cuter that way.http://www.
