TURNBERRY, Scotland - For a course that was easy as it can be, Tiger Woods sure made it hard on himself.
Woods produced a pedestrian round Thursday in surprisingly calm conditions at Turnberry, making only three birdies and far more mistakes. He wound up with a 1-over 71, the first time since 2003 that he failed to break par in the opening round of the British Open.
“Realistically, I probably should have shot about 1- or 2-under par today,” Woods said. “But I made a few mistakes.”
