Tiger Wins 8 and 7 in Accenture Match Play Final, Earns 63rd Career Victory

In an effort to liven up the otherwise boring Accenture Match Play Championship final between Tiger Woods against Stewart Cink, I joked earlier that one of the few bright spots for Cink was that the match wasn't dormie after the morning 18.

Well, Woods picked up right where he left off in the afternoon round. He had a four up lead to start the final 18 and he was eight up nine holes later. Woods finished Cink off two holes later -- with what seemed like his 50th kick-in birdie of the five-day tournament. He now has 63 wins, which moves him past Arnold Palmer on the career victories list. Next up: Ben Hogan (64), Jack Nicklaus (73) and Sam Snead (82). And because Eldrick is probably going to win every tournament he enters in 2008, he should pass Snead sometime in August.

So Cink doesn't pull off the most impressive comeback in PGA Tour history. Shocking. For Woods, he wins his second event of the 2008 season on American soil, and this follows on the heels of four victories in the final five PGA events last season, including the PGA Championship.

Some other mind-blowing stats, courtesy of NBC Sports. Woods' singles record in match play:

* U.S. Jr. Amateur - 22-1-0
* Western Amateur - 6-2-0
* U.S. Amateur - 20-2-0
* Walker Cup - 1-1-0
* Ryder Cup - 3-1-1
* President's Cup - 3-2-0
* World Match Play - 2-2-0
* WGC Match Play 31-6-0
* Total: 88-17-1

If we're talking about the World Golf Championships, Woods has been just as impressive. In 26 events, he has 15 wins, six top-20s, 24 top-10s and has earned just under $20 million. As Dan Hicks noted during the telecast, his WGC earnings alone would put him 21st on the career money list. For some perspective, Jack Nicklaus won less than $6 million on the PGA Tour.

Yep, Tiger's definitely going undefeated this year.
