Davis Love tweaked his back hitting one-irons on the driving range before his opening round Thursday, which helps explain how he shot a 5-over-par 77, 12 strokes behind leader Adam Scott and in jeopardy of missing the cut.

Love started with three bogeys and a double bogey over the first four holes and stood at 6 over before the clock struck 10 a.m.

"I got off to a bad start," he said. "I don't know if it's because of the back stuff, or if it's just because I got off to a bad start."

Like a lot of players on tour, Love is no stranger to back problems; he said they "come and go" all the time. He hoped he could walk off his pain on the way to the first tee, but it never went away. He checked with a trainer at the turn and the trainer told him to keep trying it.

"I thought I was making some good shots. I just wanted to make a birdie," he said.

He did, but only one. Now, he's on the verge of missing the cut, which would guarantee there would still not be a back-to-back champion in the 31 years of this tournament. There's also a chance he could withdraw.
