AUGUSTA, Georgia: Tiger Woods opened his bid for a Grand Slam sweep with a steady par-72 in the first round of the Masters on Thursday, as Justin Rose underlined his credentials as a potential winner.
The 27-year-old Englishman produced a scintillating opening round of 68, moving from two-over after five, to four-under after 13, including four birdies in a row from the sixth.
That gave him a share of the first-round lead alongside comeback man Trevor Immelman of South Africa.
