Tiger Woods earned his first PGA Tour victory since 2013 Sunday by winning the Tour Championship by two shots at 11 under.

Woods, who entered the day with a three-shot lead, captivated fans with a blast from the past, ending all doubt he's returned to form after four back surgeries since 2014. Woods finished the season with eight top-12 finishes, including a runner up at the PGA Championship and this win.

A poised and controlled effort, Woods fired a final-round 71 to finish the week second in the FedEx Cup standings. He called his opening-round, 5-under 65 one of his best rounds of the year.

While Woods' victory stole the show this week at East Lake, Justin Rose, the world's top-ranked player, won the FedEx Cup. Rose struggled Sunday, firing a 3-over 73, but he two-putted for birdie on the 72nd hole to claim the Cup.

Rose finished tied for fourth at 6 under to add a FedEx Cup title to his resumé which already included an Olympic gold medal, U.S. Open and world No. 1 ranking.

Billy Horschel shot a 4-under 66 Sunday to finish second at the Tour Championship at 9 under. He won the FedEx Cup in 2014.

Dustin Johnson shot a 3-under 67 Sunday to finish third at 7 under. Hideki Matsuyama and Webb Simpson tied Rose for fourth at 6 under.

Gallery members joined Woods down the 72nd fairway as he finished off his 80th PGA Tour victory. He won five times in 2013, but injuries cost him the better part of five years.

As long as Woods can stay healthy, he should be able to challenge for more wins next season. His next stop is the Ryder Cup. </s> Tiger Woods won the moment, thrilling the fans in attendance, but it was Justin Rose who ended up winning the FedExCup. That is the way the golf world will remember the 2018 Tour Championship, as Woods ran away with the individual title, finishing 11-under par to beat Billy Horschel by two strokes. Rose tied for fourth place at 6-under, just enough to vault him to the top of the FedExCup standings and claim the PGA Tour’s big overall prize.

Rose came into the Tour Championship at the East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta in second place on the FedExCup leaderboard, and there were myriad possibilities for determining the overall season champion, depending on how each of the PGA’s best golfers performed over the four rounds. Rose put himself in position to win the Cup with rounds of 66-67-68 before struggling to post 73 on Sunday. In the end, combined with points leader Bryson DeChambeau finishing 19th at 1-under par, Rose did just enough to put his name in the history books.

He now has won the 2012 U.S. Open, an Olympic gold medal in 2016, and the FedExCup in 2018, while also earning the current No. 1 ranking in the world and finishing the season with that distinction intact.

Meanwhile, this tournament belonged to Woods and Woods alone, and he came very close to taking the Cup home, too. He began the event in 20th place on points, but Woods shot 65-68-65 to enter Sunday play with a three-stroke advantage. This was vintage Tiger on the course, too, as there was never really a doubt in the fourth round on Sunday as to who would win the event. In an impressive comeback from a variety of injuries, Woods won his first PGA Tour event in over five years, the last one coming at the Bridgestone Invitational back in August 2013.

Dustin Johnson finished third behind Woods and Horschel, carding a 67 in the fourth round to finish at 7-under par. Hideki Matsuyama and Webb Simpson finished in the fourth-place knot with Rose, while Rory McIlroy, playing with Woods in the final group on Sunday, shot 74 to finish in a tie for seventh place with Rickie Fowler, 2017 Tour Championship winner, Xander Schauffele, and Justin Thomas.

It was a crazy four days at East Lake, though, with every one of the top 30 golfers participating capable of winning the FedExCup, depending on how the balls bounced and found the cup. Fowler and Woods shared the first round lead at 5-under after Thursday’s play, although Rose and Gary Woodland were hot on the trail, just one stroke behind the leaders. Tony Finau, McIlroy, and Thomas all posted rounds of 67 to stay two shots off the pace. Points leader DeChambeau struggled to shoot 71, while Phil Mickelson was at the bottom of the board after posting a 73 in the first round.

Two of the pre-event favorites, DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka, shot themselves out of contention on Friday in the second round, with very high scores. Koepka, winner of both the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship this season, posted a 78, while DeChambeau had his second straight day over par, carding a 75. This left the overall FedExCup championship wide open for a host of players atop the leaderboard — most notably Woods.

Tiger once again was tied for the lead, this time after 36 holes and with Rose at 7-under par. McIlroy was alone in third place at 5-under, while a quartet of golfers lurked in fourth place, one stroke behind McIlroy. That made for a bunched-up leaderboard heading into the weekend, with seemingly endless possibilities for the tournament and the overall title chases.

By the end of the third round on Saturday, however, Woods was in command at 12-under after shooting a 65. He had a three-shot lead over both McIlroy and Rose, his closest pursuers at 9-under par. Tiger shot the low round of the day, although McIlroy’s 66 was not too far behind. That set up an interesting final pairing for Sunday, in perhaps a Ryder Cup preview, with McIlroy and Woods. Jon Rahm and Kyle Stanley were tied for fourth place at this point, six shots behind Woods.

It was all just the set up for the somewhat anticlimactic finish on Sunday. What stood out the most in this tournament was how so many of the world’s top players could not consistently shoot under par over the four rounds of the Tour Championship: No golfer posted four rounds in the 60s at East Lake. Interpret that any way you will, but it says a lot about the pressure and the situation the tournament had to offer the best golfers on the final weekend of a long season.

Next On The Tee: The Ryder Cup

For the 42nd time in history, many of the world’s top golfers will compete against each other in the now-established United States vs. Europe format. Jim Furyk captains the American team, while Thomas Bjorn is the European captain. The U.S. squad currently holds the Cup itself after its 2016 victory at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Minnesota, but the Americans have not won or retained the Cup on European turf since 1993. That makes for an interesting weekend of exciting golf, now that the PGA Tour has concluded its 2017-18 season.

On both Friday and Saturday, the teams will compete in two different formats: four alternate-shot matches in the mornings and four better-ball matches in the afternoons. On Sunday, the final day of competition, there are 12 singles matches, and that almost always provides a tremendous amount of drama and excitement for the fans. McIlroy and Rose, as well as 2018 British Open champion, Francesco Molinari, lead the European squad against Woods, Koepka, Johnson, and DeChambeau, among others.

Each match carries a point for the winning team, and the U.S. needs 14 points out of 28 to retain the Cup. Europe will need to win 14.5 points to earn back the trophy.

This Ryder Cup event will be played at Le Golf National outside of Paris. The Albatros Course has hosted the French Open almost every year since 1991, and the 2024 Olympic golf competition is scheduled for this venue as well. The course opened in 1990 and was designed by a trio of architects. Interestingly, the term albatross in golf diction equates to the double eagle. Eduardo Romero of Argentina set the course record here in 2005 by shooting 62. Since this competition is not stroke-based, that record will remain intact despite the high level of golfing talent descending on Le Golf National later this week.

The Albatros Course plays 7,331 yards long and is a par 72.

Follow him on Twitter @sxmcp, because he’s quite prolific despite also being a college English professor and a certified copy editor. </s> The 2018 PGA Tour comes to end this weekend as the winner of the FedEx Cup is decided at the Tour Championship. The top-30 ranked players compete for the huge prize pot with the overall reward being a cool $25million. Bryson DeChambeau begins the week as the favourite to win the FedEx Cup outright but England’s Justin Rose and the resurgent Tiger Woods are all in contention. This is the first time Woods will be competing in the Tour Championship for years after returning to top form this season.

Injury issues and personal problems have plagued his career over the years but, while a win on tour has still alluded him, he looks close to his best. And Woods admits he is proud of what he has achieved this season. “I think the season itself has been amazing," he said. “To be able to have played this well after coming off of what I came off of.

“I didn't know how many tournaments I'd play in, and next thing you know, here I am in the Tour Championship. “There's some guys that can't say they've accomplished that, have got into the Tour Championship, but to have come back from where I've come back from and to get here has been a pretty tall order and something I'm proud of." The FedEx Cup will undergo radical changes in 2019 with the bonus pool to be increased by $25m to $60m. The No 1 player heading into the Tour Championship will also start at 10 under, the next four starting at eight under through to five under and the scale will go all the way down to those who qualify 26th to 30th beginning at level par. </s> (CNN) — Tiger Woods has won a PGA Tour event for the first time in over five years after victory at the Tour Championship.

The 14-time major winner’s triumph at Atlanta’s East Lake Golf Club was his 80th on the PGA Tour and his first since August 2013.

Woods finished 11-under par for the weekend, two strokes clear of his nearest challenger Billy Horschel.

“It was just a grind out there,” the former world No. 1 told NBC moments after his final putt. “I loved every bit of it, the fight and the grind and the tough conditions. Loved every bit of it.”

Thousands of fans followed the 42-year-old down the 18th fairway, chanting “USA, USA” as Woods sealed his first win in 1,876 days.

“I just can’t believe I pulled this off,” added a visibly emotional Woods during the presentation ceremony.

“It’s been tough. I’ve had it not so easy the last couple of years and I’ve worked my way back.”

Amid the excitement, it was easy to forget current world No. 1, Justin Rose, had birdied the 18th hole to finish tied for fourth place and secure the FedEx Cup — which serves as the finale to the PGA Tour season — as well as a check for $10 million.

“Sorry to rain on the parade, guys!” he joked.

“I would like to take this moment to congratulate Tiger. I think the world of golf is really proud of you right now.” </s> It’s entirely possible that Justin Rose could win $11 million today, strengthen his position as the world number one – and practically no-one here at East Lake will either notice or care.

Nothing against the popular Englishman, it should be stressed. It’s just that the landmark victory the golf world craves and that has seemed inevitable with every passing week of his mesmerising comeback has now moved firmly into view following another stunning round from Tiger Woods on Saturday.

To think, with five days to go before the start of the 42nd Ryder Cup, Woods is poised to complete his first win in five years – and the 80th on the PGA Tour of his incredible career - while the only players who can possibly stop him are the two mainstays of Europe’s team in Rose and Rory McIlroy.

By Woods’s side on Sunday will be McIlroy, who has dreamed since he was a teenager of playing alongside his idol in the final round with a title on the line.

Woods was tied with Rose at the start of the third round of the Tour Championship but is now three shots clear of the Euro pair following a sublime 65.

There were days during Woods’s prime when we could all have gone home at this point, knowing exactly what would happen in the final round. But five years is a long time and who knows what will happen if Rory gets into one of his irresistible grooves, or Rose putts a lot better than he did on Saturday.

Woods blew everyone away with a mind-boggling five straight threes to begin. He was five clear after just seven holes. But he cooled off thereafter and McIlroy is still very much in this, as is Rose despite taking 31 putts to Woods’s 23.

As for the $10 million bonus for winning the FedEx Cup, that is now Rose’s to win or lose. He is currently second on the FedEx list, the leader Bryson DeChambeau has faded badly, and so he could finish fourth and still win the bonus. Runner’s-up spot in the tournament would earn him a further $1 million.

With one eye on the Ryder Cup, it will have cheered captain Thomas Bjorn to see Jon Rahm in tied 4th place and Paul Casey tied 6th. He won’t be too upset either to see so many of the Americans playing tired golf, following a long run of events. In a 30 man field, Bubba Watson is tied 27th, Patrick Reed 29th and Phil Mickelson dead last following an exhausted-looking 76.

As for McIlroy, he dropped a bombshell for European golf by revealing he will begin his season in America next year for the first time. Forsaking traditional pit-stops in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, it is the first bleak sign of how the changing schedule and vastly increased riches on offer on the PGA Tour are going to wreak havoc for the European equivalent.

Only once since he joined the paid ranks in 2007, when injured last year, has McIlroy skipped Abu Dhabi. ‘It’s the perfect place for me to open my campaign,’ he said in January, but the landscape has shifted dramatically.

Last Wednesday, the PGA Tour announced the FedEx bonus pool will increase from $35 million to $70 million, with the leading prize going up from $10 million to $15 million.

There’s a $2 million bonus for the man who goes into the play-offs in first place – a position McIlroy wouldn’t have a hope of claiming unless he upped his numbers in America.

‘I think the changes to the PGA Tour schedule are great and will encourage the guys to play more,’ explained McIlroy. ‘I always feel like I’m behind everyone else because I play in Europe.

'I come over here for Los Angeles in February and everyone has played ten events, while that’s my first one. People will play more because of the bonus at the end of the regular season and then there’s obviously a lot of money to be had in the play-offs.’

McIlroy will play his first tournament in Hawaii in January and base himself in America until July. With an American wife and a home in Florida, it makes sense on a personal and professional level.

But it’s desperate news for Europe. The first time McIlroy will be seen at a regular European Tour event will be at the Irish Open in July – and he won’t be alone in shifting his priorities. Expect plenty more to follow his example. </s> Dustin Johnson had a reasonable lie in the rough and only a few pine tree branches blocking his path to the 17th green. Neither seemed like a problem until he played the wrong shot, clipped the tree and wound up with a double bogey Saturday in the Tour Championship.

It was an example of how one hole can change everything at East Lake.

And it’s why the final round of the PGA Tour season suddenly has more scenarios than Johnson cares to consider.

Johnson recovered with a birdie from the bunker on the par-5 18th for a 1-under 69, giving him a share of the lead with Kevin Chappell (68) going into the last round that will determine who wins the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup.

For the first time since 2009, there’s a chance it might not be the same player.

“There’s a lot of scenarios that could happen,” Johnson said. “But yeah, I’m still going to go out and try to shoot as low a score as possible.”

Johnson only has to win or finish second alone to claim the $10 million bonus as the FedEx Cup champion.

Rory McIlroy, who has gone 28 holes without a bogey at East Lake, had three birdies over his last six holes for a 66 and was two shots behind. If he were to win the Tour Championship and Johnson finished in a two-way tie for second or worse, McIlroy would claim the FedEx Cup.

“It would just be great to try to win the Tour Championship, and if the chips fall my way, then so be it,” McIlroy said.

The winner of the Tour Championship has won the FedEx Cup every year since 2009, when Phil Mickelson won the tournament and Tiger Woods won the FedEx Cup.

Johnson led by as many as four shots when he ran off three straight birdies on the front nine, and he really didn’t do much wrong to give up the size of that lead. He had a three-putt from 70 feet on No. 13, and missed the fairway by a few feet on the next hole, enough that his ball was buried so deep that even Johnson and his power couldn’t advance more than about 135 yards.

It was the 17th hole that reshaped the tournament.

Johnson tried to play a fade from a flyer lie in the rough, and the ball came out high and hit a branch, leaving him in more rough about 60 yards short of the green. He put that in the bunker, blasted out to 6 feet and missed the putt to make double bogey.

Chappell rolled in a 10-foot birdie putt for a three-shot swing on the hole and suddenly had the lead, only for Johnson to catch him with the final birdie. </s> ATLANTA -- The coronation could finally occur as Tiger Woods made his way to the 18th green Sunday, a remarkable scene as thousands of spectators engulfed him on his walk to victory while chanting and cheering his name as he was about to put the finishing touches on his 80th PGA Tour win.

The final round at East Lake was not easy, but it paled in comparison to the treacherous comeback Woods endured in recent years as he tried to recover from multiple back surgeries.

That beaming Woods smile and arms raised in triumph after the final tap-in suggested it was worth all the hardship.

A 1-over-par 71 was good enough to capture the Tour Championship, the season-ending tournament on the PGA Tour schedule and one that gave Woods his first victory in more than five years. He won by two shots over Billy Horschel as Justin Rose captured the season-long FedEx Cup title.

"I was pretty emotional when Rory [McIlroy] was tapping out, he was finishing out,'' Woods said. "I looked around, and the tournament was over because I'd already put the bunker shot on the green, and I'd won 80. 80 is a big number. I've been sitting on 79 for about five years now, and to get 80 is a pretty damned good feeling.''

A birdie at the first hole set the tone for Woods, who increased his lead over playing partner McIlroy and Rose to four shots at the point. In much the same manner he won numerous titles over the years, Woods played smart, methodical golf, doing all he could to limit mistakes while letting others make them.

His lead was never less than two, and it got that close only at the 16th hole, where Woods made a bogey while Horschel was already in the clubhouse.

"The game plan was to shoot under par, and I birdied the first hole right out of the gate,'' he said. "Now, play the next 17 in even par, and we're good to go. I was just grinding out there, and I was telling [caddie] Joey [LaCava], it felt like more of a grind today because of where I kept leaving myself. I had downhill putts virtually every single hole. The only three putts I made today at 1 and 4, the par putt, and 13 -- those were all uphill. It seemed like I was downhill, down grain every single hole, and I was putting very defensive and conservatively all day.''

Rose, despite a final-round 73 that dropped him out of contention for the Tour Championship, birdied the last hole to capture the FedEx Cup and a $10 million bonus. Had he not birdied the last, Woods would have won his third FedEx title.

Clearly, winning the tournament was more important to Woods. It came only a few days short of a year since he told reporters, "I don't know what my future holds,'' months after spinal fusion surgery meant he was still unable to take full swings with a golf club.

"It is emotional for sure,'' said Rob McNamara, Woods' long-time friend who has served as his eyes and ears over the past year while the golfer played without a coach. "He made me cry, but I couldn't be more proud of him, a true champion in every sense of the word.''

Woods is expected to go to No. 13 in the world after dropping as low as 1,199th late last year. It was his 18th start of 2018, and he has seven top-10 finishes. Woods also now trails all-time PGA Tour victory leader Sam Snead by two.

"I am extremely proud of him,'' Jack Nicklaus said in a series of tweets congratulating Woods.

I never dreamed @TigerWoods could come back and swing the way he has, after surgery. I think you could argue he's swinging better than he has ever in his life. He has played fantastically! — Jack Nicklaus (@jacknicklaus) September 23, 2018

Woods played beautifully to give himself a three-shot 54-hole advantage, a lead he has never failed to convert now in 24 tries. He shot rounds of 65-68-65 to get to 12 under par, giving him his first three-round advantage since he won the 2013 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, his last victory.

It proved beneficial on a day when East Lake seemed particularly difficult. Just 13 players broke par, and those closest to Woods -- McIlroy and Rose -- manage scores of 74 and 73, respectively.

"It was a grind out there,'' Woods said. "I loved every bit of it. The fight and the grind and the tough conditions and just had to suck it up and hit shots, and I loved every bit of it.''

McIlroy shot 39 on the front nine to fall out of contention and finished with a 74 and in a tie for seventh. Rose also struggled, falling four shots back by the turn and tied for fourth. It was then a matter of Woods getting to the clubhouse at East Lake, the home of the great amateur Bobby Jones, whose photos and memorabilia adorn the surroundings.

Horschel, who won the 2014 FedEx Cup, made a late push with a 66, but when he was in at 9 under par, Woods had only three holes to play.

Woods, 42, was basically out of golf for the past two years, playing just three tournaments worldwide as he attempted to alleviate back and nerve pain that led to four surgeries. When he returned at the Farmers Insurance Open in January, he was ranked 656th in the world, had not earned a single Ryder Cup point and seemed miles away from being able to compete with the game's best.

But Woods slowly gained form, posting six top-10 finishes coming into the Tour Championship, including at The Open and the PGA Championship.

"He's played such good golf all year that it's just not surprising,'' Phil Mickelson said while Woods was on the back nine. "It was just a matter of time before he does win. He's playing so well on a very difficult golf course. We all have been kind of expecting it. I've seen the way he's been swinging the club and the way he's been playing. We all knew it was just a matter of time.''

Woods has said many times that he has been touched by the outpouring of support he has received throughout the year from fans, many of whom had never seen him or had certainly not watched him perform at a high level.

He admitted that the conclusion Sunday was unique, as he was swarmed trying to get the bunker that fronted the green, from where he was able to blast on and complete the tournament.

"I appreciate it a little bit more than I did because I don't take it for granted that I'm going to have another decade, two decades in my future of playing golf at this level,'' Woods said. "It means a lot more to me now in that sense because I didn't know if I'd ever be out here playing again, doing this again.''

And then, putting the length of his career into perspective -- Woods won his first PGA Tour title in 1996 -- he was asked how he thought the world would react, given that he had likely broken the internet.

"Well, when I came out here, there was no internet,'' Woods said, smiling.

Woods is now the favorite to win next year's Masters. Heading into the Tour Championship, he was 12-1 behind then-Masters favorite Jordan Spieth. By the end of the tournament, Woods' odds had been trimmed to 9-1, ahead of Spieth's, at the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas.

Woods also is a minus-220 favorite over Mickelson in their match play event in November in Las Vegas.

ESPN's David Purdum contributed to this article. </s> It was an example of how one hole can change everything at East Lake.

And it’s why the final round of the PGA Tour season suddenly has more scenarios than Johnson cares to consider.

Johnson recovered with a birdie from the bunker on the par-5 18th for 1-under-par 69, giving him a share of the lead with Kevin Chappell (68) going into the last round that will determine who wins the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup.

For the first time since 2009, there’s a chance it might not be the same player.

“There’s a lot of scenarios that could happen,” Johnson said. “But yeah, I’m still going to go out and try to shoot as low a score as possible.”

Johnson only has to win or finish second alone to claim the $10 million bonus as the FedEx Cup champion.

Rory McIlroy, who has gone 28 holes without a bogey at East Lake, had three birdies over his last six holes for 66 and was two shots behind. If he were to win the Tour Championship and Johnson finished in a two-way tie for second or worse, McIlroy would claim the FedEx Cup.

“It would just be great to try to win the Tour Championship, and if the chips fall my way, then so be it,” McIlroy said.

The winner of the Tour Championship has won the FedEx Cup every year since 2009, when Phil Mickelson won the tournament and Tiger Woods won the FedEx Cup.

Johnson led by as many as four shots when he ran off three consecutive birdies on the front nine.

It was the 17th hole that reshaped the tournament.

Chappell rolled in a 10-foot birdie putt for a three-shot swing on the hole and suddenly had the lead, only for Johnson to catch him with the final birdie. They were at 8-under 202.

Chappell, a runner-up three times this season who has never won on the PGA Tour, has made only one bogey in 54 holes this week, a show of consistency, discipline and a few good breaks when he does miss the fairway.

His next chance at a breakthrough victory is to face golf’s best player at the moment (Johnson), with McIlroy and Ryan Moore (66) two shots behind.

“I’ve always kind of been the underdog, so it’s a role I’m comfortable in,” Chappell said.

Moore went out in 31 until he was slowed by a pair of bogeys, though very much in the mix just two shots out of the lead. The mystery is whether anything he does on Sunday <0x2014> even if that means a victory <0x2014> is enough for Davis Love III to use his last captain’s pick on Moore for the Ryder Cup.

“I came here this week to win a golf tournament, and I’m 100 percent focused on that,” Moore said, adding that the Ryder Cup is “completely out of my control.”

And that’s how the last day is shaping up for everyone <0x2014> post a score and see where it leads.

Johnson, for a moment, looked as though he might take all the drama out of the season-ender when he made a 15-foot par putt early in his round and then ran off three straight birdies on the front nine to go four shots clear.

The putter cooled off, however, and Chappell stayed in range.

Chappell chipped in on No. 12 to match birdies and stay three shots behind, and then he quickly closed the gap when Johnson made back-to-back bogeys, only to respond with a 4-iron over the water to a peninsula green on the par-3 15th to 15 feet for birdie.

“I thought about just trying to hit it in the front bunker, which I probably should have done <0x2014> probably would have made 4 if I’d have done that,” Johnson said. “But it is what it is. I came back and birdied the last hole, tied for the lead going into tomorrow. I like my position.”

And he doesn’t need a degree in math to figure out the easiest scenario <0x2014> just win. </s> CHARLOTTE: Justin Thomas made two spectacular birdies in the final six holes on Sunday (Aug 13) to win the PGA Championship, the 14th-ranked American taking his first major title in a back-nine shootout thriller.

On a day that saw five players share the lead at one stage, Thomas fired a three-under par 68 to finish 72 holes on eight-under par 276 for a two-stroke victory over South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen, Italy's Francesco Molinari and American Patrick Reed.

Thomas rolled in an amazing 40-foot chip shot at the par-3 13th for a two-stroke lead and curled a 14-foot putt into the left side of the cup to birdie the par-3 17th for a three-shot edge, making a closing bogey all-but irrelevant.

Thomas claimed the Wanamaker Trophy and grabs the top prize of US$1.89 million (€1.59 million) for his fourth victory of the season after last year's CIMB Classic in Malaysia and two January events in Hawaii, the Tournament of Champions and Sony Open.
In golf, Tiger Woods wins the PGA Tour's season-ending Tour Championship for his first tour win since 2013. Justin Rose wins the season-long FedEx Cup points race and its associated US$10 million bonus.
