Stereolab, Britain’s Clever Post-Rock Innovators, Want to Capture Ears Again

By Craig McLean

• May 10, 2019

LONDON — On a bright spring afternoon, Stereolab ’s Tim Gane stood on a quiet back street south of the River Thames, gazing quizzically at a church that once held Blackwing Studios, the storied recording complex inside a deconsecrated 19th-century house of worship. The early British electronic artists Depeche Mode and Yazoo made records there, in what Gane described as a “small, dark, somber” space, before he and his bandmate and writing partner Laetitia Sadier brought their group to Blackwing nearly three decades ago to record its second album, “Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements.”

That 1993 record — a blend of Krautrock, Muzak, electronic experimentation and pop melodies, with Sadier singing about consciousness and politics in a mix of English and French — would cement Stereolab as innovators relentlessly pushing the boundaries of rock. And what kind of atmosphere did the cloistered studio bring to the mix? “Well, it was a bit gloomy,” Gane said brightly.

A dose of cheekiness was always central to Stereolab’s mission, and “Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements” kick-started its ascent as the band that perhaps best embodied the D.I.Y., artful, anti-mainstream British music scene of the early ’90s. Its combination of Minimalism, pre-70s easy listening and cutting-edge studio techniques was simultaneously nostalgic and forward-looking, making the band sound both out-of-time and timeless.

But after a 19-year run that endured the death of the multi-instrumentalist and singer Mary Hansen and the end of its core duo’s romantic relationship, the group went on hiatus in 2009. This month, its nearly decade-long slumber came to an end.

“All along, I’ve seen that people were just waiting for us to come back,” Sadier said over ale and salt-and-vinegar chips at a nearby pub. “And I feel really joyful that we can give it again to people, one more time. But it’s a shared enjoyment. I love this music and I’m so keen to be singing it and performing it again.”

The reunion was stoked by the efforts of the pioneering U.K. electronic label Warp, which bought the rights to the LPs Stereolab released on the major label Elektra in the United States. Warp then began discussions with the band and its longtime manager, Martin Pike, about making the albums freshly available in physical formats — only appropriate for a band that the writer Simon Reynolds called “the ultimate record collection rockers,” whose endless list of influences and interests shifted from album to album, even moment to moment.

Seven albums — including the heralded trio of “Mars Audiac Quintet” from 1994, “Emperor Tomato Ketchup” from 1996 and “Dots and Loops” from 1997 — are being reissued with bonus tracks and packaging extras. And the band — which now includes the drummer Andy Ramsay, the keyboard player Joe Watson and the bassist Xavier Muñoz Guimera — is heading out on tour, starting in Europe this month before arriving in the U.S. in July.

Gane, 54, said the band didn’t want to celebrate those albums, exactly, but “give them some sort of way to exist in the modern world, in 2019.”

THE BRITISH GANE and the French Sadier met in Paris in 1988, when Gane’s previous band, the political indie-guitar four-piece McCarthy, performed there. They became a couple and, after relocating to London, Sadier contributed vocals to McCarthy’s third and final album, “Banking, Violence and the Inner Life Today” in 1990. McCarthy split that same year, and Gane and Sadier formed Stereolab and its own label, Duophonic, to release its records. Both musicians played an array of guitars, organs and synths; Sadier handled lyrics. (“Life on Earth is a bloody hazard, it’s a fact,” she began the 18-minute epic “Jenny Ondioline” in 1993. “The immutable system is so corrupt,” she later continued, before repeating “We got to keep the lift, hope and struggle” again and again.)

The band’s cleverness and facility with both pop culture and political references immediately set them apart. The musician and producer John McEntire first met Stereolab in Chicago in 1993, when his then band Gastr Del Sol opened on its first American tour. In a phone interview he said he was instantly struck by Gane’s “totally encyclopedic knowledge of everything — and that is not exaggeration at all.” He went on to produce four of Stereolab’s albums.

“We were never part of any particular scene,” Pike, still the group’s manager, said in a phone interview. “We had our own label in the U.K. and just did our own thing — which meant we didn’t have to satisfy the British music press.” He noted that Elektra afforded the band complete creative freedom, too: The band would deliver music and artwork, “and it was released, no questions asked.”

At the pub, Sadier discussed how self-determination was central to the band’s aesthetic: “I would go so far as to say we were avoiding going overground. Because, you know, it’s a pain,” said the singer, 50, whose arrival at the church earlier in the day was eased by a pair of Nordic walking poles. (She recently underwent surgery on the meniscus in her right knee: “I carried too much heavy equipment — cables and pedals. It’s a rock ’n’ roll injury,” she said self-mockingly.)

She referenced PJ Harvey, Pulp and the Cranberries — artists who, at one point, were on the same level as Stereolab before attracting a wider audience. “This kind of notoriety is not a particularly good thing,” she added. “You don’t enjoy it anymore. You don’t enjoy what you do.”

Fame, it is clear, was not a priority; keeping up ceaseless exploration was the focus. But it, too, eventually took its toll.

The occasionally fretful Gane, who resembles Thom Yorke’s equally rumpled older brother, and the mostly sanguine Sadier agreed that having a son, Alex, in 1998 didn’t derail their workaholism. Sadier, however, admitted to feeling like she was on a hamster wheel of “writing, recording, touring,” and experienced crushing fatigue while touring with an infant. In 2002, Hansen — whose vocal interplay with Sadier became a signature of Stereolab’s sound — was struck and killed by a bus while bicycling in London. Then Gane and Sadier’s relationship came to an end.

Discussing the band’s hiatus, which came after the release of its last full studio album, “Chemical Chords,” the duo revealed vastly differing perspectives on its trajectory.

“I was tired of touring,” Gane said. “But the main reason was, I couldn’t see a way [the music] would develop. And I didn’t have the spontaneity to make it work any more. I felt the next record we made would be bad.”

Sadier’s explanations were more rooted in personal dynamics. “I felt that the ambience in the band was really crappy, and very stifling, and I had no enjoyment being around the people in the band,” she said. “There was too much alcohol being consumed. Too much jadedness. Too many miserable people to be doing this.”

Gane disagreed, and the pair had a brief, tense back-and-forth that ended with Sadier recalling how she ended the group’s last show of its pre-hiatus tour “in tears in a bar in Tokyo. I was bawling.”

For a moment, it became easier to see how the tensions that encouraged the band’s explorations and tenacity could also push the group to the brink.

IN THE NINE years since the band’s break, Gane formed a group called Cavern of Anti-Matter with the former Stereolab member Joe Dilworth and Holger Zapf. Sadier, who had previously played in the side project Monade, put out four solo albums, sang on Tyler, the Creator’s song “PartyIsntOver/Campfire/Bimmer” and collaborated with Deerhoof.

But during the gap, said Stephen Christian, a creative director in Warp’s London offices, the dormant band’s music was “resonating with a younger generation.” Stereolab “exists in the gap between the experimentation of the underground and the appeal of the wider world of pop music,” he said, citing Pharrell Williams and Tyler, the Creator.

With a renewed crop of fans awaiting its return, is the band apprehensive about putting the show back on the road after a decade?

“What we might lack in a bit of technical proficiency, we’ve always lacked,” Gane said. “We’re going to be more rehearsed than we ever were for any previous tour. We can’t do more than that.”

As for Sadier, she remains as politicized as ever. She still wants to “change the world, big time,” she said. “But now I’m more realistic. I’m still a bit of a Marxist revolutionary: you have to put up a struggle, otherwise you’re going to get [expletive].” Referencing the current moment of societal and international division, and sharply polarized views on everything from climate change to economic inequality, she added, “We’re only going worse and worse and worse down this road. So I’ll still be singing my lyrics with all my heart. Because alas, nothing’s really changed positively.”

Plans beyond October are less clear. When asked if there was new Stereolab music in him, Gane replied: “Don’t know. Maybe. That’s the problem.” He explained, “There’s the music that, as an instigator of the music, I’m interested in doing. That might not sound anything like Stereolab music. But can it become Stereolab music? That’s the question.”

Would Sadier like there to be a new album? Equally true to form, she got to the point.

“What are the hours?” she replied with a coquettish look.

Live reviews

Stereolab hit a sweet overlap between sugary pop and adventurous experimentalism, rooted in tranced-out psychedelic drone that was both wonderfully modern and bathed in stylistic trends and instrumental sounds of the sixties and seventies. Early shows were based on their touchstone sound: a pulsing simple beat, guitar chug, and bubbling vintage analog synthesizers which can feel very kindred to recordings of the "Krautrock/Motorik" style pioneered in Germany by acts like Neu! and early Kraftwerk, or any garage band which had discovered that playing one riff or even just one note repetitively and toying with texture and dynamics makes for a very different sort of musical journey.

Except on this one there is a French woman singing pop melodies and harmonies. Overlaying Tim Gane's guitar chug-a-lug with the exquisite voices of Laetitia Sadier and Mary Hansen made for an infectious brand of pop-retro-futurism that, just like Krautrock, later evolved into an electronica-flavored style of gadget-oriented sound as modern technology began allowing for more innovative sounds. Sometimes associated with more retro lounge, tropicalia, and psychedelic genres, Stereolab often references its influences quite directly but always has its own identifiable voice and is ultimately predominantly remembered and filed as an indie rock band, and live shows were always clearly just that: rock.

Collaborations with Sean O'Hagan resulted in many gorgeous lushly orchestrated records (unfortunately seen less often in their live performances), Mouse on Mars gave them a playful electronic club sound, and influential producers John McEntire and Jim O'Rourke always made their records impeccable sonic adventures. Live, the rock foundation of their catalog always leapt out and kept audiences moving. There is a reason collectors obsess over each recording this band released, as though each song is often stylistically similar to a lot of other releases in their catalog, the pop sensibility makes every melody a delectable piece of candy, and you want to gorge on more.

Report as inappropriate

Only brilliant memories from Stereolab concerts. Like when German Krautrockers FAUST opened for them, and weren't too shy to set off a smoke grenade at the end of their gig. Everybody chokingly left the venue, only to return later for an awesome Stereolab gig.

When they opened for Sonic Youth, seemingly c*r*u*s*h*i*n*g the headliner in an exhilarating 50 minutes (SY still managed to top this off, though).

First fell for them at the 2nd stage of Lollapalooza '94, their drone sound is unsurpassed and their shows are rocking hard.

Perfect concert! I even had an autograph from Laetitia after!! The house was crowded and it was a very nice atmosphere! I went back 18 years ago, when I attended their concert in Cine Iris, Rio de Janeiro/Brasil. I just have missed my favorite song, Free Design, because they already performed the night before!

An amazing show. I have wanted to see Stereolab for so long and after all that waiting I'm happy you to say that they did not disappoint me in the least. I would happily see them again!! If you have the chance to see them DO IT!! You will not be disappointed!!

They still got it! Amazing show. Great energy from the band which in turn energized the crowd. Spanned the years with a fantastic setlist. Would go see them again in a heartbeat.

A Beginner’s Guide to the kaleidoscopic music of Stereolab

John McEntire of Tortoise once said that Tim Gane possessed a “totally encyclopedic knowledge of everything—and that is not exaggeration at all.” This is an important fact to remember when diving into the voluminous, eclectic and seemingly overwhelming catalog of Stereolab. The UK-based band, formed in 1990 from ex-McCarthy members Tim Gane and Laetitia Sadier, could be accurately described as the product of their influences without being dismissive of backhanded; when your record, art and film collections go as deep as theirs do, it’s nearly impossible to create something that’s simply “derivative.”

Put a different way, Stereolab listened to a lot of the same records as every other band in the early ’90s—The Velvet Underground, Suicide, Can, Neu!, Silver Apples, The Beach Boys—but their interest wasn’t in recreating those sounds. Their name, particularly in the stretch of records in the second half of the ’90s, takes on an almost literal significance; to Stereolab, the studio was a venue for experimentation and discovery, each track a balance of sonic compounds and fluid integration of seemingly disparate parts. That they later named an album Chemical Chords only further winks at this idea of the band as lab-coated DIYers intently focused on finding the proper formula for musical euphoria, delivered with playfulness, vision and, more often than not, a dose of Marxist/Socialist theory. They made revolution sound like a blast, but they did so coming from a similar background as their own listeners. That they turned a pure and unquenchable thirst for music and art into something so kaleidoscopic and boundless is what makes their music incredible.

Throughout their career, Stereolab released 11 studio albums, nearly two-dozen EPs, plus a handful of compilations, an art installation soundtrack and various other wide-release and rare recordings. They’re an indie record collector’s dream—I can speak from experience, having spent a good chunk of the ’90s tracking down various singles and EPs for the sake of having access to their b-sides, which were often as strong as their album cuts. But they’re also a band whose discography can seem somewhat intimidating for those who haven’t yet had the pleasure of experiencing the “groop” (and that’s another thing—they have their own stylization and lingo that this article doesn’t get into, but you’ll pick it up easily). With three of the band’s classic albums being reissued next month and a North American reunion tour taking place this fall, now is the time to do it right and offer up a beginner’s guide to the band’s music, starting with five of the best Stereolab albums and onto the next steps.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup

(1996; Elektra)

The critical consensus has long held that Emperor Tomato Ketchup is Stereolab’s finest moment. And while I’m loath to uphold conventional wisdom as indisputable fact, this is one of those rare cases in which it’s absolutely correct. On paper, every idea on Emperor Tomato Ketchup existed somewhere in Stereolab’s catalog—the gorgeous French orch-pop of “Cybele’s Reverie” had a bubblier predecessor in “Lo Boob Oscillator,” the psycho-ear-candy of the band’s early noise pop singles achieves hi-fi hit-single potential on “The Noise of Carpet.” And by and large the album is still a patchwork of pop cultural and political influences that the band wore proudly—title borrowed from a Japanese film , lyrics referencing Marxist theory, an album cover patterned after a Bartók performance recording . In practice, Emperor Tomato Ketchup felt like a pretty significant leveling up. This is kaleidoscopic pop that twists and turns and grooves and shimmies its way toward the infinite. This is a big album with big ideas, overstuffed with elements that work in harmony and counterpoint, but never in opposition. “Metronomic Underground” lurches forth in its motorik rhythm as a being that emerges from the primordial soup, but near the end of its eight minutes, emits a cosmic and godlike chorus of organs and keyboards, all building up stormy and tense drones that consume the entirety of its landscape. “Percolator” initially feels like a curious and quirky bit of synthplay, but it too takes an anxious journey toward one of the band’s most magnificent climaxes. And the title track is Stereolab at their funkiest. Kind of. There are essays to be written about this album that might better get toward what it’s about , but the truth is that you’ll really only understand that with 60 minutes to spare and a good set of headphones.

Dots and Loops

(1997; Elektra)

If Emperor Tomato Ketchup is Stereolab’s most cohesive collection of songs and overall strongest moment as a band, its follow-up, 1997’s Dots and Loops , is their most impressive production. Everything feels bigger, brighter, more lush and luxurious. I recently heard the single “Miss Modular” while drinking cocktails in the lounge at Palm Springs midcentury resort The Parker and it felt perfectly placed—a soundtrack for impossibly stylish cool. Yet there’s more than big-budget takes on bossa nova and exotica throughout Dots and Loops . It’s Stereolab dialed to their most saturated, the album sounding pretty expensive when you get down to it—and that includes personnel numbering in the dozens. String sections, horn sections, members of Tortoise, The High Llamas and Mouse on Mars are all part of the widescreen studio experiment. And it is very much a studio experiment; certain tracks, like the four-part, 17-minute side-long centerpiece “Refractions in the Plastic Pulse” have never been attempted live. But what’s here is mostly gorgeously orchestrated, stunningly layered and innovative art-pop, whether in the form of planetarium jungle-jazz in “Parsec,” brassy glitch-funk in “Ticker Tape of the Unconscious,” or the breathtaking exotic waltz of “The Flower Called Nowhere.”

Mars Audiac Quintet

(1994; Elektra)

On their earliest records, Stereolab alluded, nodded and touched upon various entry points of note in the hipster vinyl canon—Krautrock, droning noise-rock, ’60s French pop, lounge/exotica and slowcore—though they might have most accurately been called Neu!gaze. But Mars Audiac Quintet is the album on which those disparate yet complementary elements congealed into a more cohesive and maximalist whole, not so much changing their formula as giving it room to breathe. In other words, it’s the album on which Stereolab became the Stereolab we now know today. Or at least a somewhat pure form of it. Stereolab, of course, kept evolving, reshaping the textural elements in their sound, redefining what it meant to be this curious, eclectic, politically radical and decidedly outside-the-mainstream band—one with a major label contract at that! But it’s easy to hear what made the band so exciting in the ’90s, as they were beginning to advance their creativity into something that both embraced and discarded pop sensibilities in an unpredictable swirl of sound. Mars Audiac Quintet is essentially one highlight after another—the infectious drone-pop of “Wow and Flutter,” the Canned Heat buzz-and-groove of “Transona Five,” the space age yé-yé of “Des étoiles électroniques,” the anti-capitalist/anti-imperialist lounge pop of “Ping Pong,” amusingly misinterpreted back around the 2008 election by Meghan McCain . Everything that made Stereolab special can be heard on Mars Audiac Quintet , and it’s in ample, unpredictable supply.

Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night

(1999; Elektra)

Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night is a peculiar place to start with Stereolab, not the least significant reason being that its title is a mouthful. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t warrant being early in the queue, however. In fact, it’s by far one of the band’s most ecstatic and vibrant pieces, an overstuffed realization of the band’s creative potential firing in every possible direction. In just a half-decade, Stereolab progressed from a more minimalist drone-pop approach to one immersed in everything from Os Mutantes’ Tropicália to the Beach Boys’ orchestral pop, and from Steve Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians to Jobim and Esquivel. It’s the space-age bachelor pad music the band made kitschy reference to early on in their career, only this time they took full advantage of their resources in order to pursue a bigger-budget, imaginative ideal. They’re at turns jazzy (“Phases”), rhythmically intricate (“The Free Design”), dreamy (“Infinity Girl”), abstract and sprawling (“Blue Milk”), even psychedelically groovy (“Op Hop Detonation”). If the side effect of throwing so many ideas at the wall means Cobra and Phases is slightly less cohesive than its predecessors, it’s a small sacrifice for the sake of showing the full expanse of everything this band can do.

Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements

(1993; Elektra)

Two crucial things happened for Stereolab in the years between their debut album Peng! and its follow-up. One, the band signed to major label Elektra, thus giving them a larger platform and wider resources in which to cultivate their hypnotic art-rock. The other was an expansion of the band’s lineup, bringing on board Mary Hansen, whose extra vocal layer helped to characterize the band’s sound, lending a more playful counterpoint to Laetitia Sadier’s stoically tuneful leads up until Hansen’s untimely passing in 2002. The result is a bigger, noisier, weirder album than its predecessor—and arguably one of the strangest major label albums of all time . Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements is a dynamic and ecstatic set of indie rock that’s, to use the band’s own phrase, “super-electric.” An ever-present Farfisa keyboard drone looms large in most of these songs, including the single, “Jenny Ondioline,” which appears on the album in 18-minute form (its final 9 minutes comprise the b-side of Nurse With Wound collaboration Crumb Duck ). That Stereolab are the sort of band to choose the album’s longest, arguably least comprehensible track as its “single” (it has a video and everything!) only goes to show just how outside the mainstream the band were thinking, regardless of whether or not a Warner subsidiary was providing money to develop their brand. Funny thing, though—as often as Transient presents pop songs in the form of minimalist noise-pop pieces, it’s surprisingly accessible. “Our Trinitone Blast” rides a wave of tension toward stunning climax, “Analogue Rock” climbs toward a raucous finale, and standout “Crest” features an upbeat jangle-pop backing behind a revolutionary chant: “ If there’s been a way to build it, there’ll be a way to destroy it—Things are not all that out of control. ” A mantra worth repeating 26 years later, when there are seemingly more reasons to panic than ever.

Also Recommended: Stereolab’s catalog looks considerably less intimidating if you only examine their 11 studio albums and occasional EPs such as The Groop Played “Space Age Batchelor Pad Music” and Instant O in the Universe . But they’ve got an incredible amount of singles and EPs that were only pressed in more limited quantities, which makes compilations like 1995’s Refried Ectoplasm and 1998’s Aluminum Tunes all the more necessary. The former features some of the best singles the band ever released, such as the stunning, shoegazey “French Disko” and the hard-driving Jesus and Mary Chain-style “John Cage Bubblegum.” The latter is a larger selection of songs covering a period of greater evolution for Stereolab, which means a more fragmented and arguably less cohesive set of songs, but a bolder set of experiments, ranging from the gorgeously lush tracks from their Music from the Amorphous Body Study Center art installation to a Jobim cover with jazz flautist Herbie Mann to remixes of tracks from Dots and Loops .

Advanced Listening: This is the part where I tell you that any Stereolab release is worth picking up—and that’s true. Even their minor, barely acknowledged releases include something wonderful to hear. (And if you want to go really deep, seek out some of the non-album singles like “Fluorescences,” as featured on Oscillons from the Anti-Sun .) But before Pokemon-ing every Duophonic UHF disk, listen to debut album Peng! and its follow-up EP The Groop Played “Space Age Batchelor Pad Music” to better understand where they started, how far they’ve come, and just how good their ideas were from the start.

2024 Masters Tiger updates: Woods sets record for consecutive made cuts

Woods finishes at 1-over 145, will make his 24th straight cut at Augusta National

Change Text Size

Friday told us a lot about the state of Tiger Woods. He's still got it.

The five-time Masters winner hung tough on a marathon Friday in windy conditions at Augusta National, finishing two rounds at 1-over 145, safely inside the projected cut line. He'll make the cut for a 24th consecutive Masters appearance, setting a new record that he previously shared with Fred Couples and Gary Player.

Woods, 48, stood 1-under through 13 holes when play was suspended due to darkness Thursday night. He played his final five holes of the first round Friday morning in 2-over, signing for a 1-over 73, and he began the second round shortly thereafter. He carded an even-par 72 in the second round, continuing to demonstrate his all-time short game with a series of crafty par saves.

Woods entered the week having played just 24 holes of PGA TOUR competition this season. He completed 23 holes on Friday, doing so admirably.

How would Woods’ body hold up with the short recovery time? That was the million-dollar question, and although his gait Friday indicated the understandable wear and tear expected after myriad surgeries and the natural aging process, it didn't keep him from producing two solid rounds in demanding conditions at Augusta National.

After undergoing ankle surgery following a WD during the third round of last year’s Masters, Woods returned to PGA TOUR competition at The Genesis Invitational in February, where he opened in 1-over 72 but withdrew during the second round due to flu-like symptoms. The Masters is Woods’ first start since withdrawing at The Genesis, and he said Tuesday that he still believes he can contend and win. He'll enter the weekend well back of the leaders, but he'll have a puncher's chance.

Read below for a hole-by-hole look at Woods' historic Friday at Augusta National.

Hole 18 (par 4, 465 yards): Woods flirts with the left tree line off the tee, but the golf gods smile upon him; the ball eludes the limbs and safely reaches the fairway, leaving an 167-yard approach up the hill on Augusta National's home hole.

Woods tugs his second shot left of the green with a 9-iron; it settles safely in the fairway cut and he smiles, perhaps reflecting on what he is set to achieve. The wind is gusting as hard as it had all day, with sand seen escaping the front greenside bunker and blowing across the green.

Woods plays a safe third shot to 6 feet past the hole, keeping from any potential trouble, and the patrons' cheers of appreciation reverberate across the property. He makes his par, another sublime up-and-down in a week full of them. At 1-over 145, he'll play the weekend for a 24th consecutive Masters appearance. He'll have that record alone.

Even-par 72 in second round, 1-over 145 through 36 holes

Hole 17 (par 4, 440 yards): Woods pulls driver and stripes a low fade down the center of the fairway, wasting no time in picking up his tee. The patrons roar, perhaps in anticipation of imminent history. Woods appears purposeful and determined, careful not to exude any morsel of excess energy. He stripes his 173-yard approach but the ball sails just beyond the green, settling quickly in the fairway cut, roughly 30 feet past the hole location set on the green's back portion. Woods plays a conservative chip shot that settles 6 feet short, leaving a knee-knocker for par.

The stage is set, and Woods delivers. His par putt drops in the center of the cup, and the patrons roar. He's three strokes inside the projected cut line with one hole to play in Friday's second round.

Even-par through 17, 1-over overall

Hole 16 (par 3, 170 yards): Woods wants nothing to do with the pond that guards the green's left side; he plays a safe shot to the back of the green, leaving a mid-length birdie try from 26 feet to a right-middle hole location. He safely lags to tap-in range and cards a routine par.

Woods stays three strokes inside the projected cut line with two holes to play in his second round. History beckons.

Even-par through 16, 1-over overall

Hole 15 (par 5, 550 yards): Augusta National is the canvas for dozens of memorable moments across golf history, a proverbial tie that binds. Add Woods' second shot at the par-5 15th in Friday's second round to the list.

After a well-placed 292-yard drive down the middle, Woods selects 3-wood for his 258-yard second shot across the pond. It's a bold choice at this stage in the game, on the precipice of holding the Masters' consecutive cuts record alone, and Woods executes. The ball sails high in the air and lands softly on the green's proper back level, leaving an 25-foot eagle putt. Woods has maintained a fairly stoic face all day, but he allows a slight smile as he walks toward the green. As has often been the case throughout an 82-win PGA TOUR career, Woods delivers in a crucial moment.

He two-putts for birdie, returning to even-par on the round. He now has a three-stroke buffer on the projected cut line with three holes to play.

Even-par through 15, 1-over overall

Hole 14 (par 4, 440 yards): After five straight pars, Woods makes a disappointing bogey at the mid-length par 4 despite a perfectly positioned drive.

From the center of the fairway, Woods tugs his 150-yard approach left of the green, leaving an awkward chip shot from the pine straw. His bump-and-run third shot checks up 9 feet short; his par putt starts right of the hole and stays there.

Woods falls to 2 over for the week, still two strokes clear of the projected cut line but with a little less wiggle room. Now he heads to the risk-reward par-5 15th, which can offer red numbers but also saw Jordan Spieth make a 9 in the opening round.

Woods 1-over through 14, 2-over overall

Hole 13 (par 5, 545 yards): One of golf's greatest holes, the sweeping dogleg-left par 5, and Woods makes a conventional par to remain safely inside the projected cut line.

Woods' tee shot misses just right of the fairway, making for an easy layup decision; he executes a low punch from 294 yards with an abbreviated follow-through to leave an 130-yard wedge approach. Facing a diabolical hole location tucked on the green's back tier, Woods safely plays to the middle part of the green. He two-putts for par from 55 feet, demonstrating his innate understanding of Augusta National once again. No harm, no foul.

Woods even-par though 13, 1-over overall

Hole 12 (par 3, 155 yards): Perhaps the golf gods are rooting for Woods to set the Masters' consecutive made cuts record as well. His tee shot sails past the green at the short par 3 over Rae's Creek, but the ball kicks backwards from the pine straw to leave a simple pitch shot across the green. Woods, a short-game magician, has no such trouble with this straightforward task; he plays a 12-yard bump-and-run to 3 feet and cleans up his par.

With the projected cut line moving to 4 over, Woods now has three strokes of cushion as he eyes history.

Woods even-par through 12, 1-over overall

Hole 11 (par 4, 520 yards): Woods has no trouble finding the fairway off the tee, but the hole is playing into the wind, almost as a par 4.5 for the field. Faced with 236 yards for his second shot, Woods employs a safety-first mentality, playing to an area of fairway short-right of the green, 26 yards from the hole.

Once again, Woods displays some short-game acrobatics, playing a bump-and-run third that flirts with the greenside bunker's edge but releases safely onto the green, leaving a 6-foot par putt. Once again he solves an Augusta National riddle with aplomb.

Should we be amazed? Perhaps. But this is Tiger Woods, and the patrons rise in appreciation as he walks to the famed par-3 12th across Rae's Creek.

Woods even-par through 11, 1-over overall

Hole 10 (par 4, 495 yards): After a perfect drive down the middle, Woods plays a conservative 186-yard second shot to the green's left side, leaving a slippery birdie putt from 44 feet. The putt tracks toward the hole but slides 6 feet past, leaving a crucial par-saving attempt to maintain the momentum that has built in recent holes.

Woods doesn't miss a beat, rolling his par putt into the center of the cup. He retrieves the ball from the hole with authority, remaining two strokes inside the projected cut line as he heads to Amen Corner.

Woods even-par through 10, 1-over overall

Hole 9 (par 4, 460 yards): Woods picked up his tee and didn't look worried as his drive reached the apex. The wind had other ideas, hollowing off the right and pushing Woods' tee shot into the trees on the left. That will be a difficult angle to reach that green and might just be a lay-up.

Woods rehearses a big hook shot and does hit it through trees. It never had a chance to reach the green, though, and goes flying into the patrons greenside.

More creativity from Tiger, who takes it way up high with his pitch and lands it 11 feet from the hole, then drips it in for par. That's a fantastic save and the type of putt he hasn't made today. It's a great sign as he makes the turn, well within the projected cut line.

Woods even-par through 9, 1-over overall

Hole 8 (par 5, 570 yards): Max Homa goes way right. Jason Day goes way left. Tiger Woods pumps one right down the middle. Once again playing as one of the easiest holes, Woods is firmly in position to make a birdie after that tee shot.

From 294 yards out, Woods decides to lay-up. The eighth was playing downwind yesterday, but that's not the case today. Woods is left with 64 yards from the middle of the fairway after his second shot.

He's played this hole a few times, eh? Woods perfectly clips a wedge that hops and stops pin-high, 4 feet from the hole. Woods finishes that up for his second birdie of the day. With a tough stretch of No. 9-12 upcoming, that's some needed breathing room. The cut line is still trending toward 3- or 4-over.

Woods even-par through 8, 1-over overall

Hole 7 (par 4, 450 yards): It's imperative to find the fairway on the narrow par-4 seventh. Woods pulls 3-wood, tees it down and hits a cut that splits the middle. His day has been filled with inconsistencies, but his driving has not been one of them. Including the five holes of his first round he played this morning, Woods has hit 7-of-8 fairways.

Woods stares down his approach from 156 yards, but is exasperated as it lands in the front bunker. Woods looked like he liked the strike, so he must have misjudged the wind. Now Woods is back in scrambling mode. The seventh hole is playing as the second-hardest hole in Round 2.

Woods opts to go low with the bunker shot as it skids and stops 7 feet past the hole. That sets up another tester... and another miss. Woods' putt lips out and that is his third bogey in four holes. The mistake there came on the approach shot. Woods had a chance to make the difficult seventh a birdie hole. Instead, a poor approach means Woods drops another shot.

Woods 1-over through 7, 2-over overall

Hole 6 (par 3, 180 yards): Winds continue to gust as Woods backs off his tee shot to let the winds subside, then hits a low bullet that barely clears the front bunker.

With the option to putt or chip, Woods pulls wedge and it was a great idea! Woods plays a short little runner from 9 yards away that curls right into the cup! Woods needed that and gives a hearty wave to crowd as he grabs the ball from the bottom of the cup.

With the chip-in, Woods plays Nos. 4-6 in 1-over. In these conditions, that's solid. Let's see if Woods can ride that momentum and make the turn in red figures.

Woods even-par through 6, 1-over overall

Hole 5 (par 4, 495 yards): This is a hole that has had Woods' number and it's giving him fits again. Woods misses his first fairway of the day and it's a costly one. His drive leaks left and finds the massive fairway bunkers. He's forced to lay up, which gives him 119 yards to the hole. Woods plays the smart shot, knowing he absolutely can't go long of the green. He leaves himself around 20 feet for par.

But it will be another dropped shot. Woods hits a good putt that doesn't fall. Now 2-over for the tournament, the cut line is starting to become a discussion. There are 54 players at 2-over or better. With conditions getting more difficult, expect the cut to get to 3- or 4-over.

Woods 1-over through 5, 2-over overall

Hole 4 (par 3, 240 yards): Historically one of the toughest holes on the property, the fourth is playing even more difficult today with the wind likely adding 20-25 yards to the shot. Woods attempts to cut one into the middle of the green but leaves it out to the left and just misses a greenside bunker.

If there was a place to miss on this hole today, it's where Woods is. His pitch is solid but rolls out 5 feet past the hole, leaving a very delicate putt. The best leave is definitely short of this pin location. Woods is forced to make a very defensive putt, starting the ball outside the hole. It just didn't come back. That's a bogey for Woods.

Woods even-par through 4, 1-over overall.

Hole 3 (par 4, 350 yards): Another fairway hit for Woods, though it needed a bounce of some Georgia pines to make it there. Woods' driver leaked a little right but the good kick leaves him 87 yards from the hole. It's a challenging pin position today on the front-right portion of the green.

That unlocks the artistry in Woods' game, who pulls pitching wedge from less than 90 yards and hits a knockdown shot that lands 10 feet past the hole and stops. Great spin control gives Woods another great look at birdie, his third straight.

Woods stands over the putt then backs off. It's getting mighty windy out there and Woods' Sun Day Red pants are flapping as the gusts cut through Augusta National. Back over the ball again, Woods makes a confident stroke that drops in from the low side. Woods is on the board with his first birdie of the day.

Woods 1-under through 3, even-par overall

Hole 2 (par 5, 585 yards): Woods opts for 3-wood today and finds the fairway. If you recall, Woods went way left with his tee shot on this hole yesterday using driver. But with the hole playing downwind today, he can get to the green in two without driver.

From 267 yards away, Woods ropes a wood over the right side of the green and into the patrons. With the hole location on the far left side of the green, he's got plenty of room to operate, but he's still 43 yards away.

Barely visible among the throng of patrons, Woods' pitch skips and stops 11 feet from the hole. Woods has the line but his putt stops less than an inch from the hole. That's another par. Two good looks for birdie on the opening two holes. Now it's just time for the putter to cooperate.

Woods even-par thru 2, 1-over overall

Hole 1 (par 4, 445 yards): New round, same driver. Woods has hit every fairway today, including on the first hole of his second round. Along the left side of the fairway, Woods has an ideal angle from 161 yards out and hits in pin-high, about 15 feet from the hole. After two bogeys and three pars to close his first round this morning, Woods has a chance to get his second round off to a great start.

Woods gives it a good run but misses it on the high side. No complaining about a par at No. 1, now with a chance to get a birdie at the par-5 second.

Woods even-par thru 1, 1-over overall

Hole 18 (par 4, 465 yards): Tiger has great rhythm with the driver, with another perfectly placed tee shot in the 18th fairway. It's a mighty encouraging sign as the first round finishes up and Woods readies for 18 more holes. It's a 287-yard drive. He has 171 yards into the closing par 4.

After Max Homa's approach got swallowed up by the wind and found the right greenside bunker, Woods plays a nearly identical shot. The wind impacted those shots much more than either player anticipated. Woods will need an up-and-down to finish even-par for the first round.

Nearly more short game magic for Woods! His bunker shot comes just inches from hitting the flagstick. Instead, it races by and Woods has more than he bargained for -- 16 feet for par. He gets the putt to the hole but doesn't play enough break. He closes with a bogey.

Woods finishes with an opening-round 73. That's a solid result given his lack of competitive reps, though Woods is surely disappointed after he was 1 under through 13 holes when play suspended Thursday night. He won't have much time to dwell on the finish. His second round tee time is scheduled for 10:18 a.m. ET. He has around 45 minutes to grab some food, keep the body loose and get ready for 18 more holes.

Woods shoots 1-over 73

Hole 17 (par 4, 440 yards): It's another low, fading bullet with the driver that finds the fairway. Woods is 3-for-3 in fairways hit this morning. That's a great sign. He's hit 77% of the fairways in this first round, slightly better than the field average.

With 158 yards into the green, Woods pulls 9-iron and plays the smart shot, leaving himself below the hole. He will have 23 feet for birdie. After a few shaky iron swings to start the morning, Woods has hit two solid ones with his tee shot on 16 and now this approach.

Woods leaves his birdie putt short. That's three putts left short in his opening four holes of the day. But it is another stress-free par. Those are always welcome at Augusta National, particularly on the 17th.

Woods even-par thru 17

Hole 16 (par 3, 170 yards): Woods pulls 7-iron after watching Jason Day put one in the water with the same club. The 82-time PGA TOUR winner doesn't make the same mistake. Woods safely lands it 20 feet past the pin and uses the slope to get it on the same plateau as the hole. He will have 20 feet for birdie.

It's a quick putt, meandering slightly left to right. Woods handles it with care but doesn't give it quite enough pace. That will be another par for Woods. He's 1-over since play resumed today but has made two relatively easy pars after that opening bogey.

Woods even-par thru 16

Hole 15 (par 5, 550 yards): Woods’ drive finds the fairway but it will be a lay-up with 273 yards remaining into the green. He does just that, leaving himself 70 yards. It's a tricky wedge shot on a severe downslope and Woods can't control the spin as the ball rolls off the back of the green. Woods' ball-striking has been iffy to start, but his touch is fully activated as he nearly holes the chip for birdie. He makes the comebacker for par.

It's a hole you'd like to make birdie, but Woods will take the par. He is clearly laboring this morning; the short turnaround time was likely going to be problematic. As the weather warms and Woods gets a few more swings, let's see how his body progresses.

Woods even-par thru 15

Hole 14 (par 4, 440 yards): Play resumed as scheduled at 7:50 a.m. ET. Woods plays his patented cut off the tee and finds the fairway. The 315-yard drive leaves him just 119 yards into the green, but Woods lays the sod over a wedge and comes up short of the green. That leaves Woods with a delicate chip, with the pin sitting on the top of a slope on the back of the green. Woods opts to hit a low spinner, but the ball releases out and Woods has 22 feet for par. The curling right-to-left putt come up just short. Woods makes bogey and drops a shot.

Woods even-par thru 14

More history for Tiger Woods. He makes the Masters cut for a record 24th time in a row

AUGUSTA, Ga. — A howling gust -- the kind that created havoc at Augusta National all day long -- struck the 18th green just as Tiger Woods was lining up yet another testy putt. Fine particles of sand stirred from the pearl-white bunkers, whipping across the slick green surface.

One caddie’s hat was blown off. Woods turned away quickly, avoiding the potentially painful daggers to his eyes.

Not to worry.

It was just a windy respite on the way to another bit of Masters history Friday.

When the blast subsided enough to look again, Woods rolled in a 5-foot putt to cap an even-par 72 that ensured he made the cut for a record 24th time in a row.

Of course, his sights were fixated on a far greater goal — a record-tying sixth green jacket.

Woods broke the cut mark he shared with three-time champion Gary Player, who advanced to the weekend 23 straight times beginning in 1959, and 1992 winner Fred Couples, whose own streak lasted until 2007.

“I’m here. I have a chance to win the golf tournament,” said Woods, who was at 1-over 145 through 36 holes and seven strokes off the lead. “I got my two rounds in. Just need some food and some caffeine, and I’ll be good to go.”

It was a grueling day for the five-time Masters champion, even more so considering the 48-year-old has endured numerous injuries, countless surgeries and a devastating car wreck that nearly cost him his right leg.

Woods was back at the course before sunrise to finish up the final five holes of his opening round, which was cut short by darkness after storms Thursday morning delayed the start of the tournament by 2 1/2 hours.

He made a couple of bogeys to complete a 73, then had less than an hour to rest up for another 18 holes.

Remarkably, he played just one less hole Friday than his competitive total through the first three months of the year, his patched-up body no longer capable to handling a regular schedule of events.

Even with such limited preparation, there’s something about Augusta National that always brings out the best in Woods.

“Yeah, I’m tired. I’ve been out for a while, competing, grinding. It’s been a long 23 holes, a long day,” he conceded. “But Lance (Bennett, his caddie) and I really did some good fighting today, and we’ve got a chance.”

Stewart Hagestad, an amateur who missed the cut, marveled at Woods’ performance.

“The guy has barely played at all in the last calendar year, and he’s 1 over,” Hagestad said. “That’s alien stuff. That’s unbelievable.”

With the crowd around the 18th green roaring like it was a Sunday, Woods’ steely demeanor morphed into a huge smile as soon as the round was done. He hugged playing partner Jason Day, and gave another big squeeze to Bennett before a triumphant stroll to the clubhouse, the patrons lining the ropes four and five deep to applaud his effort.

“It was awesome,” said Max Homa, who rounded out the threesome with Woods and Day. “I always wanted to just watch him hit iron shots around here, and I was right up next to him. It was really cool. His short game was so good. I don’t think I can explain how good some of the chip shots he hit today were.”

Homa, tied for the lead with Bryson DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler at 6-under 138, was glad to cede the spotlight to Woods.

“He’s special,” Homa said. “We had a really quick turnaround, and if I was feeling tired and awful, I imagine he was feeling even worse.”

Homa was impressed as much as anything by the way Woods maintained his cool on the 18th green when the sand went flying with gusts approaching 40 mph for the second day in a row.

“We had sandblasts for 45 seconds, and I turned around five times so I didn’t get crushed in the face, and he’s standing there like a statue and then poured it right in the middle,” Homa said. “All the cliches you hear about him and all the old stories about how he will grind it out, it was fun to see that in person.”

Woods was as accurate as he’s ever been off the tee as a Masters professional, hitting 25 of 28 fairways through the first two rounds. But one wayward approach shot after another left him to do all sorts of scrambling.

Fortunately for Woods, he knew where to miss and kept pulling off nifty chips and clutch putts to keep his score safely above the cut line, which ended up at 6 over.

“I was forced to get up-and-down a few times today, and I was able to do that,” Woods said. “A lot of those chip shots I was able to get up-and-down because I left it in the perfect spot, and that’s understanding how to play this golf course.”

Woods went through a stretch of six straight hole s before the turn where he made nothing but birdies or bogeys, but he settled things a bit on the back nine with a single bogey at the 14th — where his approach from 150 yards sailed into the gallery behind the green — and a two-putt birdie at the par-5 15th after clearing the pond with two booming shots.

Woods headed into the weekend facing a daunting deficit, needing a comeback of near-record proportions to win the tournament. Jack Burke Jr. had the biggest 36-hole rally, coming from eight strokes back to win the 1956 Masters.

Even though history is against him, Woods still thinks he has a chance to equal Jack Nicklaus’ record of a half-dozen titles.

“I’m right there,” Woods said. “I don’t think anyone is going to run off and hide right now.”

The  2024 Masters  continued Friday with the completion of Round 1 followed by Round 2.

What did we learn after all that golf? The weekend should be pretty exciting.

There's a three-way tie for first, with Max Homa, Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau all sitting at 6 under.

If that weren't enough, we get to watch Tiger Woods play the weekend at Augusta National once again. The five-time Masters champ has now made the cut at his 24th consecutive Masters Tournament .

Tiger Woods grinds through 23 holes at Masters and somehow gets better. How?

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods is 48 going on 68 on good days, probably more like 78 on the others. His body is a mess, especially his right leg that was crushed and rebuilt after his 2021 car crash. The only way he can compete on tour these days is to give himself plenty of time between rounds to recover, ice up, get some rest and try again the next day. To circumvent any part of that process is to tempt fate, likely leading to a poor round, a missed cut and one fewer tournament left to be played in Tiger’s storied career.

So how do we explain  what happened Friday at the Masters,  when Tiger had to play 23 holes in a gusting wind with only a 52-minute break between the first five and the last 18, and actually got better as the day wore on?

Scottie Scheffler tied atop leaderboard after second round

The top of the 2024 Masters leaderboard is crowded with Americans. Scottie Scheffler, Max Homa and Bryson DeChambeau are all tied at 6-under through two rounds at Augusta National. Both Scheffler and DeChambeau held the solo lead at various times before ending the day in a three-way tie. 

Scheffler shot an even par 72 in the second round with three bogeys and three birdies. He had the opportunity to take the sole lead on the 17th but he narrowly missed an uphill putt for birdie to the left.

Scheffler is in great position to win his second Masters Tournament in three years. He took home the green jacket in 2022.  

Scottie Scheffler bogeys 13th hole after ball lands in water

Scottie Scheffler almost escaped Amen Corner without incident until he got to the Par-5, 13th hole. The World No. 1 found the water on his second stroke. “No,” Scheffler yelled after the errant shot. He dropped in on the edge of the creek and used a club to chip the ball onto the green. He narrowly missed a par putt and finished with a bogey, his third of the second round. Scheffler drops to 6-under on the tournament and is now tied for first place alongside fellow American Bryson DeChambeau.

Bryson DeChambeau drops out of lead after bogey on 18, Scottie Scheffler in front 

American Bryson DeChambeau was even through the second round, all the way until the 18th hole (Par-4, 465 yards). DeChambeau bogeyed on his final hole of the day, marking his fourth bogey, along with three birdies in the second round. He finished 1-over 72 on the day and 6-under on the tournament. 

With the bogey, DeChambeau fell from the top of the leaderboard to second place alongside Max Homa. Now, fellow American Scottie Scheffler is in sole possession of first place at 7-under through 12 holes. 

Bryson DeChambeau hits bomb tee shot on No. 17

American Bryson DeChambeau made history at the 17th hole (Par-4, 440 yards) at Augusta National. The American co-leader teed off a 372-yard drive down the fairway. He found the green his next stroke on a wedge shot, setting up a birdie putt, which he couldn’t convert. DeChambeau has had several opportunities to birdie that he’s narrowly missed. He remains even on the day and 7-under on the tournament. 

Americans Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler share Masters lead 

Fore! American Bryson DeChambeau didn’t get off to the best start on the 16th hole (Par-3, 180yards) and launched the ball into a group of bystanders to the left of the green. But he rebounded nicely with a chip shot onto the green and knocked down a putt to save par.

DeChambeau remains even on the day and is 7-under overall, but now he has company. Fellow American Scottie Scheffler picked up a birdie on the 10th hole to take the co-lead with DeChambeau at 7-under. 

Masters leaderboard: Bryson DeChambeau on top through 15

American Bryson DeChambeau is at the top of the leaderboard, but he had an opportunity to add to it on the Par-5, 15th hole. His birdie putt looked inline with the hole, until the ball caught the lip and spun out. DeChambeau remains even in the second round with three birdies and three bogeys and is 7-under on the tournament. DeChambeau has company — one stroke above fellow Americans Max Homa and Scottie Scheffler, who are currently tied for second place. 

Tiger Woods sets record by making 24th straight Masters cut

On Friday the 15-time major champion  shot an even-par 72 in the second round  of the  2024 Masters  to walk off the golf course at 1 over for the tournament and solidify his weekend tee time.

Woods has now made 24 consecutive cuts at the Masters, the most all-time in the tournament’s illustrious history. The five-time Masters champion, in  his 26th Masters appearance , was previously tied with Fred Couples (1983-2007) and Gary Player (1959-1982).

“I was forced to get up-and-down a few times today, and I was able to do that. A lot of those chip shots I was able to get up and down because I left it in the perfect spot, and that’s understanding how to play this golf course,” Woods explained. “Probably the only exception was the spot I put myself in on 14. Most of the up-and-downs I was in a perfect spot.”

Max Homa finishes second round tied for second

American Max Homa is one stroke away from the lead through two rounds at August National. He’s currently tied for second place at 6-under with Scottie Scheffler, who both trail American Bryson DeChambeau.

Homa made it through 13 holes at 4-under on Thursday, before play was suspended due to darkness. He resumed his first round on Friday and finished at five-under, with seven birdies and two bogeys in the round. 

He continued his steady pace during the second round, where he shot two birdies and one bogey to bring him to 6-under for the tournament. 

It was a great showing for Homa, who is in pursuit of his first major title. His best major result was 10th place at the 2023 Open Championship, but his highest finish at the Masters was 43rd place last year. 

Homa had a chance become a co-leader on the 18th hole with a birdie putt, but the strong wind at Augusta National on Friday afternoon kept the ball from breaking into the hole.  – Cydney Henderson

Jordan Spieth cards a quadruple bogey

Jordan Spieth, the 2015 Masters winner, was in contention until he resumed the completion of his first round. Spieth was sitting at 2 over through 11 holes when play was suspended due to darkness Thursday. When he returned Friday, his game fell apart on hole No. 15. The three-time major winner carded a quadruple bogey with nine shots on the 15th hole.

He finished the first round +7 (79) tied for 81st.

Tiger completes first round at 1-over, 8 shots behind DeChambeau

Tiger’s first shot on 16 hit the left of the bunker, leaving him a 20-ft chance for a birdie, but he left it 3-ft back of the pin and had to settle for another par. 

On 17, Woods hit his driver straight down the middle of the fairway nearly 300 yards, leaving him 160 yards from the hole. His second shot split the bunker and landed 20 yards from the pin, but again left his birdie putt three feet short and carded another par. 

Tiger’s last hole of the first round started with another drive down the fairway. Woods has hit 77 percent of the fairway so far, and this one leaves him 171 yards from paydirt. Yet, another excellent birdie went awry as his second shot landed in the bunker. His par putt missed and he settled for bogey.

Woods' second round begins at 10:18 a.m. ET.

Bryson DeChambeau is still the leader at 7-under, with Scottie Scheffler one shot back. Nicolai Højgaard and Max Homa are at 5-under.
