After a 20-year hiatus, Tiger Woods triumphantly returned to the famed location for the first time since the 2004 Open, when he tied for ninth place. The British Open returned to Scotland in 2016, but Woods was unable to participate due to his recovery from a back injury.
Woods has competed in every major of 2024, the first time he has done so since suffering leg injuries in a car accident in 2021. However, his performance has been unpredictable, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
Woods had to withdraw from the Genesis Invitational in February after one round due to illness. He then made a comeback and participated in the Masters , where he made history by setting the record for the most consecutive cuts made at 24, but finished the tournament in 60th place. Woods then went on to miss the cuts at the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open.
For the latest on Tiger Woods' performance at the 2024 British Open Championship, here is the scoreboard.
The 152nd edition of the 2024 British Open Championship will start on Thursday, July 18 and end on Sunday, July 21. NBC and USA Network will be providing live coverage of the final major of the season, with streaming options available on Peacock.
Woods has won the British Open three times in his storied career. The first (and biggest) win was in 2000, when he took the Claret Jug with an eight-stroke victory. The second was by five strokes in 2005 and the third was by two strokes in 2006.
The American has not made the cut at the Open Championship since 2018, when he tied two other golfers for sixth place.
Woods previously played at Royal Troon when the course hosted the British Open in 2004. He finished three-under par and tied for ninth place.
