Tiger Woods closed out a four-shot victory at
the Farmers Insurance Open on Monday as he notched up the 75th PGA Tour success
of his career and his eighth win at Torrey Pines.
It was the 37-year-old's seventh career victory
at the tournament - formerly the Buick Invitational
- with his other success at the
California venue being his last, the memorable 2008 US Open
win after a play-off with Rocco Mediate.

This week's event had been forced into a fifth
day after thick fog wiped out all but ten minutes of play on Saturday and Woods
resumed with a six-shot lead
over his nearest rivals with 11 holes of his final round to play.

With such a commanding cushion, anything other
than a Woods victory always looked highly unlikely and so it proved with the
chasing pack unable to put the world No 2 under any sort of pressure.
However, Woods ultimately rather limped to
victory as he played his remaining holes in three-over, dropping four shots in
the space of four holes on the back nine.
His main problem was with the driver as he
produced some wildly wayward tee-shots, one hooked effort into a hazard on 15
costing him a double-bogey.
