DUBLIN (AP) — Tiger Woods returned to golf for the first time in five months and noticed a big difference about Muirfield Village.
It was practically empty.
The biggest star in golf started and finished with a birdie at the Memorial for a 71.
That left him five shots behind Tony Finau, who leads after a 65.
Woods played with an All-Star group of Rory McIlroy and Brooks Koepka. Combined, they have won 23 majors and all have been No. 1. And there was no one to watch them.
Woods is a five-time winner of the Memorial.
Finau birdied seven of his final 10 holes for a 66 that puts him one ahead of Ryan Palmer.
