A stellar field is bidding for the Claret Jug, but Tiger Woods faces a mountain to climb to make the cut after a poor opening day. In stark contrast, Rory McIlroy is well placed following an opening round of 66.
ST ANDREWS, Scotland: Tiger Woods made a dismal start to his British Open bid as he carded two early double-bogeys on the way to a six-over-par 78 that left him 14 shots behind the leader on Thursday.
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Tiger Woods was on the wrong side of the draw — and often the wrong side of the holes — during the first round of the 150th Open Championship on the Old Course at St. Andrews on Thursday.
ST ANDREWS, Scotland: Tiger Woods made a dismal start to his opening round at the British Open as he carded two double-bogeys on the front nine at St Andrews on Thursday to slump to five-over par.
The 150th Open Championships are now underway at St Andrews with Tiger Woods back at the home of golf and the scene of his two victories back in 2000 and 2005. The 15-time major winner had made St Andrews his main personal goal for this year making his comeback after the near-fatal car crash in February 2021.

LONDON: Rafael Nadal beat Taylor Fritz in a gruelling five-setter on Wednesday to set up a blockbuster Wimbledon semifinal against Nick Kyrgios, but revealed that an abdomen injury almost forced him to quit mid-match. The second seed lost the first set and had to take a medical time-out in the second but raised his game to win 3-6, 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, 7-6 (10/4) in a match lasting four hours and 21 minutes. Earlier, Australian maverick Kyrgios cruised past Chile’s Cristian Garin 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (7/5). Nadal admitted after the match that he was suffering from an abdominal problem, which forced him to leave the court. “I had to find a way to serve a little bit different,” he said. “For a lot of moments I was thinking I would not be able to finish the match but the crowd, the energy, thanks for that.” He added: “I honestly enjoy a lot playing these kind of matches in front of you guys. I can’t thank you enough for the support.” Kyrgios, ranked 40th in the world, trails Nadal 6-3 in their head-to-head meetings but he beat the Spaniard on his way to the quarter-finals in 2014 and is seen as a major threat to his hopes of reaching a sixth Wimbledon final.
