Golf: Woods off to slow start

SAN MARTIN: Tiger Woods’ return from a two-month layoff got off to a lacklustre start as the former world number one fired a two-over par 73 in the first round of the Frys.com Open. The 14-time major champion had to battle in rainy, chilly weather at the par-71 CordeValle Golf Club, finally reaching the clubhouse six shots off the first-round lead of 67 which was shared by four players. “It was probably one of the worst putting rounds I’ve ever had,” said Woods.
