The end came at the 11th when Woods rolled his approach to a stop two feet from the cup. Cink gave Woods the putt, then missed his own birdie putt to halve the hole, giving Woods the victory in the all-American final.

The easy finish was a stark contrast to how Woods began the 64-man event, trailing 3-down with five holes to play before rallying to beat J.B. Holmes in the first round.

Cink pocketed a runner-up prize of US$800,000.
