There will be plenty of eyes on Tiger Woods’ group at the 2022 PGA Championship on Friday.
For starters, Rory McIlroy finished Round 1 with one of the best starts to a major in his career at 5 under par. He entered the second day of the tournament trailing only Justin Thomas. Expectations were high for Jordan Spieth, who got off to a slow start but showed glimpses of why he was considered one of the early favorites to win the tournament.
Then, of course, there’s Woods. The four-time PGA Championship winner got off to a fast start (2 under through the first five holes), but finished at 4 over for the day. That puts Woods in danger of missing the cut. Woods also appeared to be dealing with a leg injury that he said hampered his play.
