Daily News | Timid Tiger Woods buried himself at Amen Corner in Round One at the Masters
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The misses and the fear spoke loudest in Tiger Woods’ latest run at fading glory. He isn’t playing to win. He’s playing to make the cut.On a perfect Thursday midday made for scoring, Woods limped around Augusta National, a course he used to own, his claws retracted, his teeth blunted, never coming close to a real Tiger roar from either him or his crowd.
“I don’t know if he can make the walk around tomorrow,” she said. “I think it’s going to be his first missed cut.” He dropped a 27-foot bomb on No. 15 and, on his next stroke, stuffed his tee shot on No. 16 to go birdie-birdie. But putting and 153-yard irons off flat tees aren’t the problem. Accuracy with approach shots off the slopes and moguls on Augusta’s fairways are everyone’s challenge. It takes a lot of practice and a strong foundation to pull them off. Tiger now can afford neither.
