Tiger Woods won his 11th major championship on Sunday; his third British Open and his second in a row. For Woods, the victory was clearly an emotional one, his first since the death of his father 11 weeks ago. After his final putt had gone into the hole to give him a two-shot victory over Chris DiMarco, he wept, the tears clearly genuine, his father clearly on his mind.
Woods won a major championship while hitting exactly ONE driver the entire week – and he shot 18-under-par.
Woods has now won three British Opens in good weather by simply overpowering the golf courses. He did it twice at St. Andrews and now he’s done it at Hoylake.
