Tiger Takes World Championships

Tiger Woods took the title at the World golf Championships this week after a disastrous finish by Padraig Harrington. He took the title by a huge four shots and at the start of the round Tiger was trailing however he soon over took the Irishman.
Harrington was three shots ahead of the American however lost his place when Tiger holed an eagle and five birdies. Both of the players were warned for slow play and the Irishman had a triple bogey which made him finish four shots behind.
Tiger birdied the 16th after hitting a fantastic eight iron within inches of the fin. He finished the tournament on 12 under parr which gave him his seventh victory in the event. John Paramor, European Tour Chief referee, got involved with the match, accusing them of time wasting.
"I'm sorry that John got in the way of a great battle because it was such a great battle for 16 holes. We're going at it head to head and unfortunately that happened. I think being on the clock influence paddy. I'm sure he would have taken a lot more time on his third shot to try to figure out how to play it, where to place the next one."
Harrington ...
... sent his fourth shot at the 16th into the pond which surrounded the green. "When you're out of position, it's difficult to be on the clock."
"I was out of position on the tee shot, second shot and third shot. I was in trouble every time and it just puts a little bit of added doubt into the equation. It certainly knocked me out of my comfort zone, byut there are rules. The players make the rules and we've got to apply them."
The players must play their shots within the allocated time or they face a £2,995 fine and one shot penalty.
Tiger had an easy finish to take the time whilst Harrington had to settle for shared second place.
Woods Wins Buick Open
Tiger Woods has showed that he is now back on form as he won the Buick Open title. He won by a massive three shots at Warwick Hills and it has left him eager for more.
In the final round he was one shot ahead of the pack and he birdied the fourth, seventh and 16th holes with his titlist golf clubs. He later parred the rest for a three under 69. He finished the tournament on an incredible 20 under par and is now firmly in place at the World number one top spot!
Roland Thatcher had a great final round with a 64 and had a fantastic eight birdies to take a tied second place with Greg Chalmers and John Senden. Michael Letzig had a disappointing final round when he was one shot behind Woods and had a final round of 73.
This was Woods' 69th PGA win and there are only two other people who have won more. Sam Snead and Jack Nicklaus have both won more and Tiger looks as if he wants to chase the title.
At one point there was some concern as Woods hit his ball into the green protecting lake on the 13th. However this was a par five and he later put a wedge to four feet to save this could be disastrous hole. Letzig was playing with Woods and had a bad final round with a double bogey at the par three eighth.
