Yang the first to tame Tiger

South Korea’s YE Yang made history as he became the first man to overturn a Tiger Woods 54-hole lead in a major and claimed the US PGA Championship at Hazeltine National.

Yang, 37, also became the first Asian-born player to win a major and he denied the world number one a 15th such victory, the American having previously enjoyed a perfect record in turning 14 third-round major leads into wins.
