Fred Couples Leads Masters and Woods
50-Year Old Masters Champ Beats Tiger
On Thursday, the first round of the Masters golf tournament marked Tiger Woods' return to competitive golf. Many people tuned in to see how Woods would behave and perform in his highly anticipated and publicized comeback at Augusta National. He turned an impressive performance in the first round, finishing with a 4-under-par 68. However, the real winner of the first round was Fred Couples, the 50-year-old former Masters champion who finished at the top of the leader board, 2 strokes ahead of number 1 ranked Woods and at least 1 stroke ahead of every other player. It was Couples' best round at Augusta in his entire career. Fred Couples is a former number 1 ranked player who last won the Masters in 1992. On Friday, Couples attempts to maintain his lead, as he competes against the best golfers in the world, including Tiger Woods.
