The 2024 Masters has kicked off with a mix of results for the game's renowned players, shaping the expectations for the upcoming rounds. The first round has set the stage for some to push themselves into contention, while others are striving to secure a spot for the weekend's play.
Tiger Woods, a 15-time major champion, managed to stay inside the cut line with an opening-round score of 73.
