Neither his opponents nor a thunderstorm could deny Tiger Woods his third win of the 2013 PGA Tour season and with it the world number one ranking.
In a fourth round pushed to Monday by inclement weather, Woods held off Rickie Fowler and Justin Rose down the stretch to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill.
Woods shot a 2-under 70 in the fourth round to finish at 13-under for the tournament.
“I play well here. It’s as simple as it gets,” Wood said after putting the finishing touches on his eighth career Arnold Palmer Invitational win at Bay Hill, via @PGATour.
The triumph is Woods’ second in a row, his third in 2013 and his 77th career PGA win.
It also returns him to the top of the world ranking for the first time since October 2010. – AP
