UGUSTA, GEORGIA - APRIL 09: Tiger Woods tips his hat to the crowd on the 18th green after finishing his round during the third round of the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club on April 09, 2022 in Augusta, Georgia. AFPPIX: Tiger Woods fired the worst score of his Masters career at Augusta National on Saturday, shooting a six-over par 78 in the third round while testing his limits in an amazing comeback from severe leg injuries.

“Trying different things, trying to find it, trying to get something, taking practice strokes and just trying to feel the swing and the putter head, trying to get anything, and nothing seemed to work.” Woods fired 71 and 74 to make the cut but struggled through cold and windy conditions in the third round with five bogeys, two double bogeys and three birdies -- including bogeys at 16 and 17 and a double bogey at 18.

“It’s just like I hit 1,000 putts out there on the greens. Obviously it affected the score. Take those away and I have normal two-putts, I made even par for the day.” Woods was hospitalized for weeks and unable to walk for months after a February 2021 rollover car crash before battling his way back through rehabilitation to end a 17-month hiatus this week, fighting off pain with every step over hilly Augusta National.
