Win No 68 for Tiger at AT&T Tournament.

Tiger Woods was the "Greedy Host" in his own tournament.He collected the $1,008,000 first prize and handed it straight back to the Tiger Woods foundation.
He worked hard to win his 68th tour victory,as Hunter Mahan had set the clubhouse targer at -12 after a brilliant 62 in the final round.Tiger needed one birdie over the closing 6 holes and delivered with a 20 foot putt on the 16th green.
He added a 67 to his 64,66,and 70 to win the AT&T for the first time.Along with the Arnold Palmers Invitational @ Bay Hill and the Jack Nicklaus Memorial tournament, he has now jumped to the top of the money table with $4,560,163 from 9 starts.He is also in pole position for the Fed Ex cup with 2,051 points from 9 starts Kenny perry is second,having played in 16 events he has only managed 1,874 points.
Tiger is also creeping ahead in the World rankings,as Phil Mickleson is out of action and Paul Casey missed the cut.
Tiger's first job yesterday before play was to txt his good friend Roger Federer on winning his 15th Major in a record 16-14 final set.
Who would bet against Tiger winning his 15th Major at Turnberry next week.
