Woods overcomes illness for victory

Tiger Woods scored an 11-stroke victory in heavy rain at the Bay Hill Invitational in Orlando, Florida.

Woods shot a four-under-par 68 in his final round to finish at 19-under-par 269, while fellow Kirk Triplett, Brad Faxon, Kenny Perry and Stewart Cink tied for second on 280.

The world number one became only the third player and the first since Gene Sarazen in 1930 to win the same PGA Tour event four times in a row.

Woods overcame a dose of food poisoning to win the title.

He now has 37 victories on the PGA Tour. Only 10 players have won more often.
