    Tiger Woods' troublesome back is failing him once again

    Tiger Woods' troublesome back is failing him once again


    The 15 times major winner has carded his worst ever opening round at the British Open, a seven over par 78 at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

    Woods says it was a battle throughout the whole round.



    Kiwi Ryan Fox is in a tie for third, after breaking a tournament record, by hitting the lowest ever score on the back nine, a 29.

    Meanwhile Lydia Ko and her teammate In Gee Chun are two shots off the lead after two rounds of the latest LPGA event in Michigan.
