A smiling Tiger Woods made a successful return to competitive golf on Saturday, teaming up with his son Charlie to card a 10-under-par 62 at the PNC Championship family tournament in Florida.

Woods, playing for the first time since suffering career threatening injuries in a February crash in California, showed flashes of his old brilliance even though he lacked his usual power and length.

The 45-year-old golfing icon used a cart to help ferry him around the Ritz Carlton Golf Course’s 7,106-yard layout.

He later admitted the physical demands of the round had been challenging; at one point Woods was seen wincing visibly.
