Woods to return to tour today

Tiger Woods and Bryson DeChambeau pounded shots along the front nine of Muirfield Village, a nine-hole practice round Wednesday for today’s first round that no doubt would have attracted a capacity crowd if spectators were allowed at the Memorial.

DeChambeau faces a stacked field at the Memorial — nine of the top 10 in the world, — while coming off a victory two weeks ago in Detroit. Woods will be playing for the first time since the PGA Tour’s restart in June.
