Woods retains title

MIYAZAKI (Japan): Tiger Woods beat Japan's Kaname Yokoo in a playoff to successfully defend his title at the $1.7 million Dunlop Phoenix tournament on Sunday.

Woods picked up the $350,000 first prize after birdying the fourth extra hole, the par-five 18th. Yokoo hit his second shot into the trees right of the green and could only make par after missing a 12-foot putt.

World No.1 Woods carded three birdies, three bogeys and a double bogey for a closing two-over 72. Yokoo had six birdies and five bogeys in a roller coaster 69.

Woods and Yokoo finished on eight-under 272, two shots ahead of American Jim Furyk (73) on a cold, overcast and occasionally wet day. — Reuters
