†††††††††††††††Proving once more that he is the absolute golf champion Tiger Woods had a record-breaking victory Sunday in the Accenture Match Play Championship, his fifth straight tournament and 15th World Golf Championship, holding all three world titles for the first time. He breaks not only records, but also women‚•˙s heart after seeing him in Gillette ad. ††††††††††††††††Woods overcome Stewart Cink with 14 birdies in 29 holes for an 8-and-7 victory, the largest margin in the final in the 10-year history of this tournament. From the first week of September he had only successes just like the one mentioned above. His long life of winning includes 63 times on the PGA Tour, moving past Arnold Palmer into fourth place on the career list, one victory behind Ben Hogan, and each year getting closer to the record 82 tournaments won by Sam Snead ,four straight times on the PGA Tour, he has set the tournament record for margin of victory in his last three wins and it was his fifth straight victory worldwide, including his stunning comeback in Dubai three weeks ago. Last year Woods' tour winning streak was at seven when Nick O'Hern beat him in the third round of the Match Play and gave him a run for his money. ††††††††††††††††††††††††2008 is the 10th year of this series, which was designed to bring together the best players in the world. Tiger Woods manages to overcome 15-of-26 in official WGC events, three of those in the Match Play Championship and only Darren Clarke (Match Play, Bridgestone) is the only other player with multiple WGC victories can represent a challenge. †He was won 15 times in WGC events, as many victories as Fred Couples has in his entire PGA Tour career. ††††††††††††††††††††††The world's No. 1 player made a career on golf events alone, for example on Sunday he earned $1.35 million Sunday, over $19.8 million in these elite events, while Cink earned $800,000 and will look back on a week in which he beat British Open champion Padraig Harrington and U.S. Open champion Angel Cabrera. That is roughly 25 percent of Woods' career PGA Tour earnings, and more than Tom Lehman earned in more than 430 tour starts. ††††††††††††††††††††††††††Woods already was 4 up after eight holes in the morning when he mentioned that a rules official had just warned them that they were close to being put on the clock for slow play. He is indeed a born champion with no real rival on the golf field. Bravo to him!
