Tiger Woods shot tracker, The Masters Round 2: Live shot-by-shot updates
Tiger Woods is back at The Masters. The 2024 tournament at Augusta National Golf Club will be the 26th start at this major championship, one that he's won in five times. The first came in his first start at The Masters as a professional in 1997, but the latest coming in underdog fashion in 2019 when he slipped on the Green Jacket yet again.
Tiger came into the 2024 Masters a relatively unfamiliar and new caddie on the bag this week after splitting with Joe LaCava in May 2023. Of course, he also hasn't had many reps, playing just about 25 holes on the PGA Tour this season.
Even still, when he came to Augusta, his experience -- and even his form shined. He didn't light up the course but played smart and showed off a stellar short game. A bogey at the last left him at +1 after his first round before a quick turnaround until his second round after finishing on Friday morning. Great position to potentially make the cut.
And we'll be following him through every shot. So stay tuned with our shot-by-shot, hole-by-hole Tiger Woods tracker at The Masters.
Tiger Shot Tracker, The Masters Round 2: Hole-by-hole, shot-by-shot updates
Hole 1 (Par 4, 445 Yards)
- Shot 1: Quickly back on the course and another good drive from Tiger. 161 yards to the hole from the first cut on the left side of the fairway.
- Shot 2: Nice approach. Got it about hole high to the left of the right hole location. 18 feet left for birdie.
- Shot 3: Not quite on the right line, but great speed. Easy tap-in left for par.
- Shot 4: Nice start, in the hole. Par (E Round 2 | +1 Tournament)
Hole 2 (Par 5, 585 Yards)
- Shot 1: Much better than in the first round when he had to chip it out lefty from off the base of a tree. This time, he splits the fairway with a 301-yard shot, leaving 267 yards into the hole. Set himself up great.
- Shot 2: Got a hold of this one, a little too much so. Sent it hard and bounding to the right side of the green into the patrons over there. Not a terrible miss, still on the proper side with a chance to get up and down for birdie.
- Shot 3: Crafty little pitch that came in and died just above and to the left of the hole location. 11 feet left for a birdie.
- Shot 4: A gut punch. Tiger left a slow putt just about 2 inches short of dripping into the hole. Easy par, but the birdie was tantalizingly close.
- Shot 5: Tap-in. Par (E Round 2 | +1 Tournament)
Hole 3 (Par 4, 350 Yards)
- Shot 1: Tiger pulled out the driver again. It was a bit overcooked and sweeping to the trees to the right, but he got a friendly bounce back into the fairway after it rattled around. 86 yards left into the hole.
- Shot 2: He takes advantage of the great break off the tree, hitting a flighted pitching wedge hole high that stops and curls back to the hole slightly. 9 feet left for birdie.
- Shot 3: Wind caused him to back off, but he rolled in the left-to-righter to drip in the right edge as it came by! Birdie (-1 Round 2 | E Tournament)
Hole 4 (Par 3, 240 Yards)
- Shot 1: Not a good tee shot. He yanked this one left right on the edge of the bunker but not in it. Left a tricky 28-yard pitch to the hole.
- Shot 2: Great shot to recover, left himself a mere 6 feet to save par.
- Shot 3: Oof. Tough miss as this one just stayed above the hole.
- Shot 4: Gives the birdie right back. Bogey (E Round 2 | +1 Tournament)
Hole 5 (Par 4, 495 Yards)
- Shot 1: The drive unfortunately hugs the left side of the fairway and gets into the bunker. 212 yards left from the sand.
- Shot 2: No shot of going for the green, Woods played it out 94 yards ahead, leaving 119 yards to get up and down for a par.
- Shot 3: Didn't give this wedge the best effort, missing that top tier and having 28 feet below the hole for par.
- Shot 4: From that distance, great effort, but it just dives below the hole.
- Shot 5: Easy tap-in. Bogey (+1 Round 2 | +2 Tournament)
Hole 6 (Par 3, 180 Yards)
- Shot 1: Truly not a bad shot, but it came up a little bit short and rolled onto the fring on the front of the green. 9 yards left to the hole on his chip.
- Shot 2: It's in! Tiger gets a little magic and mojo working as he rolls in a beautiful little chip shot. Birdie (E Round 2 | +1 Tournament)
Hole 7 (Par 4, 450 Yards)
- Shot 1: Nice-looking tee shot, belting it out into the right side of the fairway with just 156 yards left to the hole.
- Shot 2: Approach play has struggled slightly today and it showed here as he left it short into a greenside bunker.
- Shot 3: Gives himself a chance to save par with a great bunker shot that leaves him 7 feet for the par.
- Shot 4: Aggressive putt but just barely off line and burns the edge.
- Shot 5: In for a square. Bogey (+1 Round 2 | +2 Tournament)
Hole 8 (Par 5, 570 Yards)
- Shot 1: Truly can't get over how well Tiger is driving it so far this week. 284 yards. into the middle of the fairway with 295 left to the hole on the Par 5.
- Shot 2: Couldn't get it all the way there but put himself right in front of the green with 63 yards to the hole.
- Shot 3: Stuck it! 4 feet left for birdie after a phenomenal pitch into the green.
- Shot 4: Gets the dropped shot back! Birdie (E Round | +1 Tournament)
Hole 9 (Par 4, 460 Yards)
- Shot 1: Might've spoke too soon about the driver. Cooked this one a little too much to the left with the ball coming down in the trees and pine straw down the left side of No. 9.
- Shot 2: Had a little window and punched it out, though unable to find the green, hitting to the right side of the green amid the patrons with 31 yards left to the hole.
- Shot 3: Short game exhibition from Woods,who hits a funky little pitch from an elevated lie to give himself 11 feet for par.
- Shot 4: Nails! Drills the par putt with a nice little breaker. Par (E Round | +1 Tournament)
Hole 10 (Par 4, 495 Yards)
- Shot 1: Back in the fairway with this drive, hugging the left side beautifully and having 186 yards into the green.
- Shot 2: Not the best shot of the day, but he found the putting surface, leaving 44 feet for the birdie putt.
- Shot 3: Left some meat on the bone with the lag putt, rolling it by on the high side and 6 feet remaining for par.
- Shot 4: Nice make on the comebacker. Par (E Round | +1 Tournament)
Hole 11 (Par 4, 520 Yards)
- Shot 1: Another solid drive, hitting a baby draw here and finding the left middle of the fairway. Still a long 245 years left to the hole, but a nice start.
- Shot 2: Sick little sweeping draw didn't come back quite enough fighting the wind, landing 26 yards from the hole to the right side of the green.
- Shot 3: When they talk about course knowledge being valuable, this is the type of shot they're talking about. Woods used the undulations perfectly and pitched it to just 6 feet left for his par.
- Shot 4: Terrific up and down. Par (E Round | +1 Tournament)
Hole 12 (Par 3, 155 Yards)
- Shot 1: Not his best shot, hanging it out a bit to the left and long on the nervy shot, but caught a good break as it ricocheted off the hill and bushy area to the rough around the green. 12 yards to the hole.
Tiger Shot Tracker, The Masters Round 1: Hole-by-hole results
Hole 1 (Par 4, 445 Yards)
- Shot 1: Woods came out to immense fanfare on the first tee and absolutely laced a power fade to play into the wind that found the middle of the fairway. 272-yard drive, 169 yards left to the hole on his second shot.
- Shot 2: Tiger came out dialed. Beautiful iron shot from the fairway finds the green about hole-high, giving him about 8 feet for birdie.
- Shot 3: Silky! Nowhere but the bottom with a right-to-left breaker right into the cup. Birdie (-1)
Hole 2 (Par 5, 585 Yards)
- Shot 1: Tiger tried to cook one from right to left around the corner and overdid it. It found the pine straw and trees to the left side of the fairway. 217 yards to the hole, but the ball came to rest right beside a tree, leaving a tough position.
- Shot 2: Woods had to play left-handed with a club turned around with that lie up against a tree. But he made good enough contact to get it back into the fairway and give him an approach shot to set up a potential birdie try.
- Shot 3: The wind is wreaking havoc and did on this approach at No. 2 from 191 yards out. It flew the green, leaving him 14 yards to try and get up and down for par.
- Shot 4: On a sloped lie and going downhill, Tiger hit a sweet little pitch-and-run that settled at 5 feet from the hole for par.
- Shot 5: Made it! Par (-1)
Hole 3 (Par 4, 350 Yards)
- Shot 1: Back with a nice drive to rebound, Woods belted it out with a long one on the short Par 4, rolling out to 334 yards and giving him 23 yards to the hole.
- Shot 2: Woods hit a nice little pitch that just didn't check the way he was hoping for. Left himself about 12 feet for birdie.

- Shot 4: Tap-in par. Par (-1)
Hole 4 (Par 3, 240 Yards)
- Shot 1: Again, Woods was a little long with the wind causing trouble, needing to get up and down from 20 yards away.
- Shot 2: The pitch got away from him a bit, rolling well past the hole and leaving a long par putt from 12 feet to try and save.
- Shot 3: Good look from where he was but played just a hair too much break. Also left himself 6 feet for bogey, which isn't a given.
- Shot 4: The comebacker is good. Back to even, though. Bogey (E)
Hole 5 (Par 4, 495 Yards)
- Shot 1: A beauty off the tee with a perfect fade that put him in a great spot. 298-yard drive with 201 left to the hole.
- Shot 2: Really dialed here on No. 5, hitting a saucy little approach that stops quickly on the green. 16 feet left for birdie below the hole.

- Shot 4: It's in. Par (E)
Hole 6 (Par 3, 180 Yards)

Hole 7 (Par 4, 450 Yards)
- Shot 1: The drive leaked a little bit to the left into the rough, leaving a bad angle into the green from 171 yards away from the hole.
- Shot 2: That angle was tough for him and it showed. He put it into the front right bunker 26 yards from the hole, but leaving some work to do for par.
- Shot 3: What a bunker shot! Total beauty for Tiger to give himself a short par putt.
- Shot 4: Easy two-footer. Par (E)
Hole 8 (Par 5, 570 Yards)
- Shot 1: Tiger tattooed this drive fading to the right side of the fairway. Great chance to go for the green on the Par 5 in two for an eagle attempt in that position. 242 yards left to the hole on his second.
- Shot 2: Beautifully done. Almost vintage Tiger here, lacing one down the middle into this deep green and giving himself 41 feet for eagle.
- Shot 3: Not terrible but definitely could've been better. Still some meat on the bone with 4 feet left for birdie.
- Shot 4: Not a gimme but Woods got it in. Birdie (-1)
Hole 9 (Par 4, 460 Yards)
- Shot 1: Another big, great drive. Tiger finds the right side of the fairway with a 312-yard shot, leaving 172 yards to the hole at a good angle.

- Shot 4: Nice start, another par and under-par for the front nine. Par (-1)
Hole 10 (Par 4, 495 Yards)
- Shot 1: The driver has looked quite good. Put his drive in the fairway down the right side. It's a tough angle and lie in, but no trouble is always good at Augusta.
- Shot 2: Said it was a tough shot and that's how it played out. Woods left himself a little short-sided in the bunker with another need to get up and down for par.
- Shot 3: Terrific shot. Landed it right before the fringe and let it trickle out to four feet for par.
- Shot 4: Great scrambling to save his par. Par (-1)
Hole 11 (Par 4, 520 Yards)
- Shot 1: Really impressed with Tiger's driving today. Another one in the fairway. Still 209 yards left to the hole, but a great play.
- Shot 2: After backing off after a big gust of win, Woods tried to hit a sweeping hook into the green. But it came up just a bit short of the green, leaving 26 yards to the pin.
- Shot 3: Saucy! Tiger hit a high-spin little pitch in that stopped 1 foot short of the hole. Fantastic shot.
- Shot 4: Easy money. Par (-1)
Hole 12 (Par 3, 155 Yards)
- Shot 1: The wind on No. 12 has been a problem for players all day and Tiger wasn't immune. He hit a nice shot that just carried long of the green into the pine straw. 12 yards to the hole chipping back down toward the water.
- Shot 2: A savvy veteran shot to take a big number out of play. Left himself 6 feet for par.
- Shot 3: In the hole! Phenomenal save. Par (-1)
Hole 13 (Par 5, 545 Yards)
- Shot 1: Definitely not his best effort but should still be fine here on Amen Corner. Found the pine straw in the trees to the right of the fairway. 267 yards in but likely laying up with a punch-out.
- Shot 2: Was deeper into the trees than I initially realized, but hit a crafty pitch shot to get out of there, leaving 191 yards to the hole.
- Shot 3: Not spectacular, but a solid shot into the green with 22 feet left for birdie.
- Shot 4: The putt came up just a tad short, but an easy tap-in for par.

Hole 14 (Par 4, 440 Yards)
- Shot 1: Solid drive at the restart, right down the fairway, just 124 yards left to the hole.
- Shot 2: Don't say this too often about Tiger, but real wasted opportunity here. Dumped his short approach short of the green. 22 yards left to the hole.
- Shot 3: Not his best pitch, leaving 22 feet for a par save.
- Shot 4: Great effort but came up just short. Easy tap-in for bogey.
- Shot 5: It's in. Bogey (E)
Hole 15 (Par 5, 550 Yards)
- Shot 1: Conservative and laying back off the tee, a nice shot with 273 yards into the green. Surely laying up here.
- Shot 2: Indeed a layup and a good one. Middle of the end of the fairway, just 70 yards to the hole. Thats the go-zone.
- Shot 3: Maybe not the go-zone after all. Tiger sent the pitch over the back of the green, still 17 yards back to the hole and hitting toward that water.
- Shot 4: Delicate shot he made look easy, stuffing it in to 4 feet.
- Shot 5: Nice save to stay even. Par (E)
Hole 16 (Par 3, 170 Yards)
- Shot 1: Certainly not a perfect effort but a good one from Woods, leaving about 20 feet for birdie.
- Shot 2: Might be having a bit of trouble with the flat stick this morning. This one didn't have a real chance of going in, but still just 3 feet for par.
- Shot 3: Another make. Par (E)
Hole 17 (Par 4, 440 Yards)
- Shot 1: Driver still working great as he finds the fairway comfortably again. 160 yards to the hole on his approach coming.
- Shot 2: Smart approach if not unaggressive. Stayed below the hole and left himself only 23 feet for birdie.
- Shot 3: Again needed a little more pace. Left it 3 feet short of the hole.
- Shot 4: Strong par. Par (E)
Hole 18 (Par 4, 465 Yards)
- Shot 1: Tiger's driving has been some of his most impressive stuff this week. Only 287 yards but right in the fairway again. 171 yards to the hole at what should be a good angle.
- Shot 2: Close to being awesome, but not close enough. The approach leaked into the right greenside bunker. 20 yards to the hole.
- Shot 3: Aggressive shot out of the bunker and almost holed it. But it ran bay to the fringe, still 12 feet left for par.
- Shot 4: Didn't leave this one short, but it broke a bit more than expected, diving under the hole. Tap-in for bogey.
- Shot 5: Finishes up with a disappointing bogey. But still an overall solid round. Bogey (+1)
