McIlroy cashes in on Woods error

RORY McILROY took full advantage of a Tiger Woods closing bogey in the HSBC Champions event in Shanghai to move back into second on the Race to Dubai money list.

Woods produced one of the most uncharacteristic rounds of his 14-Major Championship winning career in carding a 72 that left him trailing five strokes behind world number two Phil Mickelson.

Mickelson captured a second Champions title in three years courtesy of a last round 69 for a 17-under par tally and one fewer than South African Ernie Els, who equalled the Sheshan course record with a 63 but spoiled his hopes of a victory when finding water at the last to take a bogey.
