Tiger is not leading, but lurking at the Memorial Championship

PGA Tour Memorial Championship leaderboard https://www.pgatour.com/leaderboard.html

Tiger Woods is back at the Memorial Championship for the first time in 3 years, playing beautifully and in fact was tied for the lead yesterday until three-putt bogeys on the 16th and 18th holes spoiled at terrific day, he ended up with -4 68 which at -9 is five shots behind your leader Bryson DeChambeau, who posted a -6 66, -14 total, giving him a one-shot lead going into today's play.

Consider this,Woods has won this title 5 times, the last in 2012. He finished dead last in 2015.

As always seems the case at this time of year, the weather forecast has forced the officials to move the tee times up, pairing the field in 3's off split tees to avoid the thunderstorms.

The greens are soft and holding, low scoring is in the cards. However the weather is beautiful this morning and play began at 7.30am.

DeChambeau has a one-shot lead over Kyle Stanley 70,  Patrick Cantlay 66 and Joaquin Niemann, the 19-year-old from Chile 70, all at -13.

Byeong Hun An had a bogey-free for a 69 -12, while Justin Rose who won last week and is bidding to be world #1 shot 69 -10.

Rory McIlroy just made the cut on the number, but bounced back with a bogey-free -8 64 and is at -8 not bad considering he missed three birdie chances from short range.

There were 2 cuts made due to the large number of players who made the original cut, so Adam Hadwin ( 74 70 73) MDF, while Mac Hughes 72 73 MC.
