Tiger Woods won his fourth PGA Memorial tournament title yesterday, firing a final-round seven-under par 65 and sending a message that he will be the man to beat in two weeks at the US Open.
It was the 67th career PGA title for Woods, who finished 72 holes on 12-under par 276, one stroke ahead of fellow American Jim Furyk and four better than the US third-place duo of Mark Wilson and Jonathan Byrd.
Woods fired seven birdies, two bogeys and an eagle for the second victory of his comeback from knee surgery.
"It was just about being patient with it," Woods said. "It was a matter of time because I was able to start practicing after rounds again."
A stunning birdie-birdie finish by the World No 1 served notice that Woods is back in form after making his return from an eight-month layoff and ready to defend the US Open crown he won limping through a playoff last year.
