Can you feel it? Do you smell it? The 2022 Masters has arrived, and four days of pristine golf at the nation's best course are officially underway. It all started Thursday with Round 1 as the grounds of Augusta National Golf Club are filled to capacity with patrons for the first time since 2019.

Anticipation reached a fever pitch with Tiger Woods playing competitive golf for the first time in 14 months at the most majestic course in the nation. And he's got off to a terrific start, posting a 1-under 71 with a few birdies and a handful of par saves in a performance that was as vintage Tiger as one could hope to see given his extended layoff.

There is so much to follow this week that it can be overwhelming at times. No worries: We have you covered.

On Thursday alone, you can watch the entire first rounds from two of the last three Masters champions in Woods (2019) and Dustin Johnson (2020). Also featured are some of the biggest stars in the game, including 2015 champion Jordan Spieth, Collin Morikawa, Viktor Hovland, Xander Schauffele, Scottie Scheffler and Tony Finau, among others.
