It wasn't exactly the start that Tiger Woods had hoped for after more than three months away from the PGA Tour, but it is a start, and that is a good thing.
Woods, who hasn't played a round on the PGA Tour since March 9, teed off early on Thursday morning at Congressional Country Club for the first round of the Quicken Loans National, and while it wasn't the start he wanted, his round is underway and we have yet to see any sign of pain from Woods.
Tiger's opening tee shot on the par-3 10th hole found the greenside bunker, and he wasn't able to get that up-and-down for his par. Woods also made a bogey on the 11th hole, but got one back with this great birdie on the par-4 14th.
Woods is on the course for his opening round, so make sure to follow the live leaderboard right now as he is finally back to playing professional golf again on the PGA Tour.
