TIGER WOODS WINS AT ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP

Tiger Woods equalled the PGA Tour record of 82 tournament wins with victory at the Zozo Championship.

The 43-year-old world number 10 had seven holes to finish in Japan on Monday as he matched fellow American Sam Snead’s record, set in 1965.

It was his first event since having his fifth knee operation nine weeks ago.

In April, Woods won his first major for 11 years with victory at the Masters,leaving him three short of Jack Nicklaus’ record of 18 major titles.

Snead was aged 52 when he won for the final time on the PGA Tour, while Nicklaus was 46 when he lifted the last of his major trophies.

After his record-equalling victory, Woods said: “As far as playing until 52, I hope that’s the case.

“If you would have asked me a few years ago, I would have given you a different answer, but certainly the future looks brighter than it has.

“The body can’t do what it used to but I can still think my way around the golf course.

“I know how to play and I was able to do that this week. There was a time if I didn’t know if I would play again so I am very appreciative.”
