Tiger Woods bogeyed two of the last three holes, but his closing 1-under 71 on Sunday was enough to give him his seventh victory at the WGC - Cadillac Championship.

Woods finished at 19-under-par 269. This was his 17th win in a World Golf Championship event, and the fourth PGA Tour event he has won at least seven times.

Steve Stricker, who gave Woods a putting lesson earlier in the week, closed with a 4-under 68 to grab second place at 17-under-par 271.

Thanks to that lesson, Woods needed just 100 putts over the 72 holes. That is the fewest he's had in his career in a 4-round event.

Graeme McDowell, who played with Woods, carded a double-bogey on the final hole to post an even-par 72. He was joined in third place at minus-14 by Sergio Garcia (69), Phil Mickelson (71) and Adam Scott (64).

Keegan Bradley managed a 71 on Sunday to end alone in seventh at 12-under 276.

World No. 1 Rory McIlroy fired a 7-under 65 to end in a tie for eighth at minus-10. He ended alongside 2012 champion Justin Rose (68), Peter Hanson (70) and last week's winner Michael Thompson (73).
