Jim Furyk recorded a one-stroke victory at the Chevron World Challenge.
What a week. In the wake of the turbulent allegations involving Tiger Woods, Furyk, Adam Scott and Robert Allenby rose to overdue victories on three continents. At Sherwood CC today, Furyk drained a 40-footer for par on the 71st hole, and then birdied the last to clip Woods' replacement, Graeme McDowell. It's Furyk's first win since the four-man Grand Slam of Golf in 2008. It was also an unusual day for hole-outs, as Steve Stricker and Stewart Cink both jarred their approaches for eagles at the par-4 10th hole. Later, Camilo Villegas holed his second on the par-5 13th for an albatross.
