He’s baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.

Only 14 months removed from a horrific single-car accident in Los Angeles, Tiger Woods is healed, rested, and ready for the 86th Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club.

It’ll be the first time we see him play since he paired with his son Charlie at the PNC Championship in November.

This will be his first competitive round of golf since the five-time Masters champion closed with a 4-over 76, which tied his highest score ever in the Masters as a professional. That 76 included a 10 at the par-3 12th, his highest score ever recorded on any hole in his PGA Tour career. He did close his round with four consecutive birdies on Nos. 15, 16, 17, and 18.

When does Tiger Woods play?

Thursday morning, alongside playing partners Louis Oosthuizen and Joaquin Niemann, Woods will stick a tee in the ground on the first hole to resume his Masters career.

That trio makes up Group 14, which has the tee at No. 1 at 10:34 a.m. ET. On Friday, they are Group 29 and will tee off on the first hole at 1:41 p.m. ET.

What TV channel is the Masters on?

ESPN has the main TV coverage of the first two rounds starting at 3 p.m. ESPN will have a replay of the first round at 8 p.m. the first two days.

ESPN’s SportsCenter and the CBS Sports Network will have plenty of golf action throughout the morning.

On the weekends, CBS has live over-the-air network coverage for the 67th consecutive year. CBS comes on the air at 3 p.m. ET both days.

So Tiger will be done before ESPN comes on?

That’s a true statement, barring any sort of delay. Woods starts at 10:34 a.m. ET so he’ll be finishing right when ESPN starts its live coverage Thursday, so have your phone, tablet, or smart TV ready.

How do I watch the live streams of the Masters?

Masters.com and the Masters app will have about 12 hours of live coverage the first two days, as will ESPN+. On either platform, you can watch featured groups, featured holes, and Amen Corner.

The live streams on Thursday and Friday start at 7:40 a.m. ET and go till 7:30 p.m. ET. Over the weekend, the live streams start at 10 a.m. ET. and go till 7 p.m. ET. Sunday, keep the live stream on Masters.com going past 7 p.m. so you can watch the Green Jacket Ceremony live.

Oregon State will take six-shot lead into final round at Bandon Dunes Championship

After two rounds at Bandon Dunes Resort’s Pacific Dunes Course, the Beavers lead the Bandon Dunes Championship by six shots.

Oregon State is on familiar turf this week in the Pacific Northwest. After two rounds at Bandon Dunes Resort’s Pacific Dunes Course, the Beavers lead the Bandon Dunes Championship by six shots. Oregon State, at 10 under, is the only team that has made it to double-digits under par at this point, but Oregon is close behind at 4 under.

Both teams posted 7-under 277 in the second round.

“Overall another really good job by the team today,” Oregon State coach Jon Reehoorn said. “We had some moments where we ran into some trouble, but they were not fazed by it and responded really nice.

“We’ve been in this position on a few occasions this year, and the message to the team will be to simply do what we do.”

Bandon Dunes Championship: Team Leaderboard | Individual

The Beavers won twice this fall, including at their own event at Trysting Tree Golf Club in Corvallis. This spring, Oregon State’s road has been as difficult as anyone’s. Starts at the Amer Ari and the Prestige preceded the trip to Bandon Dunes.

Oregon State is No. 45 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Rankings.

Sophomore Carson Barry, the reigning Idaho Amateur champion and a PNGA Amateur semifinalist, is 4 under through 36 holes and only one shot off the lead. He’s sandwiched by familiar names. UCLA junior Devon Bling, runner-up at the 2019 U.S. Amateur, is 5 under and among three players tied for first. That group also includes Utah’s Axel Einarsson and Seattle’s Nathan Cogswell.

UCLA is seventh in the team race at 10 over.

A five-man group at 2 under (T-7) includes San Jose State senior Sean Yu, who last month teed it up at the Genesis Invitational after earning an exemption in a Monday collegiate showcase. Yu eagled his opening hole on Monday, the par-5 12th. His 6-under 65 was the best score from any player in the second round.

Oregon State junior Spencer Tibbits is also part of that tie for seventh. Tibbits, who qualified for the U.S. Open last summer, finished no worse than T-3 individually in three full-field fall starts, including a T-1 at the Husky Invitational to start the year.

Tibbits most recently finished T-21 at the Prestige.

The tournament concludes on Wednesday, and the final round will be live-streamed on Golfweek.com.
