Tiger Woods is back.
Officially.
The GOAT teed off in the first round of the Masters on Thursday a little after 11 a.m. thanks to a brief weather delay and the moment was as special as we thought it would be.
It’s incredible that he’s playing in this tournament after suffering such serious injuries in his car accident last year in Los Angeles.
Tiger, who has won five green jackets, had a huge crowd surrounding the first tee, which made it all the more special. It’s already been an amazing week and it’s about to get even better.
Look at this crowd that surrounded the first tee:

Tiger ended up making par on the hole after sinking a 10-footer.
