Zozo Championship

Tiger Woods’ 82nd Win In Japan Makes History

- 

Tiger Woods made golf history when he won the Zozo Championship in Japan for his 82nd US PGA Tour victory, equalling Sam Snead's 54-year-old record and adding to his long list of achievements.

The 15-time major winner held off the challenge of home favourite Hideki Matsuyama to win by three shots at the weather-delayed tournament. He broke into a huge smile after birdieing the 18th to complete a three-under final round of 67 and finish 19-under par at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club. "It's just crazy. It's a lot," the 43-year-old Woods said of his 82nd official PGA Tour victory. His first came 23 years ago this month in Las Vegas, when he was 20.
