The start of the 2024 Masters is off to a slight delay thanks to some nasty weather moving through Augusta, Ga., but thankfully there will be golf Thursday, with the first groups going out at 10:30 a.m. ET.
Tiger Woods is back in action at a tournament that he's won five times, with the last coming five years ago in 2019.
Woods, who hasn't played since he withdrew from the Genesis Open in Feb., was orignally scheduled to start his first round at 1:24 p.m. He will now tee off at 3:54 p.m. ET. He is paired with Jason Day and Max Homa.
Sports Ilustrated's Bob Harig points out why this might not be the best news for Woods:
Tiger has had plenty go right for him over the years at Augusta but the weather has not been kind the last three. With a 3:54 start it means he won’t finish. Faces a long day on Friday. #themasters

Friday's weather, thankfully, looks to be ideal.
