FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Tiger Woods stood in the 15th fairway of Bethpage Black on Thursday waiting to hit as the retired Mets third baseman David Wright squatted in a catcher’s crouch a few yards away. A fan on the other side of the ropes asked Wright if he could take a photograph with him. His eyes never left Woods, who was making his first competitive appearance since winning the Masters last month. Wright is one of the most admired and beloved sports figures in New York, but during Woods’s uneven opening round of two-over-par 72 at the P.G.A. Championship, he was mostly just another golf fan circling the Tiger sun.
