It's time for the second round of the Tour Championship 2018 at East Lake Golf Course, and the day starts with Tiger Woods tied for the lead at 5-under.

Woods, one of 30 players competing for the PGA's Tour Championship and FedEx Cup, not only made a return visit to this annual event after missing some years for injury, but he stormed to the top of the leaderboard in Thursday's first round. He's hoping to carry that same play into Friday's second round.

"I hit so many quality shots all day, whether it was tee-to-green or it was putts," Woods said. "I didn't really mishit a single shot today. The only shot I can honestly say that I necked pretty bad was the tee shot at 17. Hit a 3-wood there, and with an iron, I probably would have shanked it. But ended up in the fairway and made par."

Woods' tee time for Friday's second round is 2 p.m. ET. You can follow the 2018 Tour Championship live leaderboard today here.

From the Associated Press after Thursday's first round: The crowd at East Lake was larger and louder than it has been in five years, which was the last time Tiger Woods was at the Tour Championship.

It was no coincidence.

Woods played one of his best rounds of the year in his return to the FedEx Cup finale and caused the biggest cheer of a sun-baked Thursday afternoon by making an eagle putt from just over 25 feet on the par-5 18th for a 5-under 65 and a share of the lead with Rickie Fowler.

It was the second time in as many FedEx Cup playoff events that Woods was tied for the 18-hole lead. He shot a 62 at Aronimink in the opening round of the BMW Championship two weeks ago on a rain-soaked course that allowed just about everyone to go low.

This felt even better on a dry, tougher East Lake course.

"This was by far better than the 62 at Aronimink," Woods said.

"Conditions were soft there. This, it's hard to get the ball closer. If you drive the ball in the rough, you know you can't get the ball close. You just can't control it."

Fowler, who missed two playoff events recovering from an injury to his right oblique, putted for birdie on all but two holes for his 65 as he tries to avoid ending the season without winning.

Justin Rose, in his debut as the No. 1 player in the world, got up-and-down from the bunker for birdie on the 18th for a 66 and was tied with Gary Woodland. Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas and Tony Finau, all of whom will be in France next week for the Ryder Cup, were another shot behind.
