Tiger Woods made a promising start at the U.S. Open with a birdie on the first hole, briefly leading the leaderboard. However, the rest of his round painted a different picture of his current game compared to his past dominance.
While Woods showcased his exceptional driving skills, hitting 12 of 14 fairways, his iron play faltered on the demanding Pinehurst No. 2 course. He struggled with accuracy, hitting only half the greens in regulation and enduring a stretch of five bogeys in seven holes.
