Tiger Stymied

Filed under: PGA / LPGA Tour — Joey @ 5:51 pm

Tiger’s quest for a sixth straight PGA Tour win came to an end today when Geoff Ogilvy hung on to win at the Blue Monster.

Geoff Ogilvy didn’t think nine pars would do it. Not on your life.

With five of the top 10 players in the world chasing him as the final round of the World Golf Championships-CA Championship finally came to a conclusion, the talented Aussie wouldn’t have given you a dollar for his chances if he parred in Monday.

That’s exactly what happened, though, and as a result, Ogilvy claimed both the Gene Sarazen Trophy and a check for $1.35 million. The victory made him just the third player to win more than one World Golf Championships title, although he and Darren Clarke have a ways to go to catch Tiger Woods’ total of 15.

Nice win, Geoff!
