Tiger Woods’ miraculous comeback from a serious car crash was completed on Thursday when he teed off at the 86th Masters at Augusta National.
Wearing a bright pink shirt to match the famous azaleas at the Georgia course, Woods sent fans into a frenzy as he arrived ahead of his first round on Thursday.
He was a measure of concentration as he stepped up first to tee off in his group at 4.04pm, but watched with a grimace as he missed the fairway to the right on the par-four opening hole.
That left Woods with a tricky angle for his second shot, and he saw his approach roll off the front of the green.
In typical Tiger fashion, however, he saved par with a nerveless up-and-down, then followed that up with routine pars at the following three holes.
