“I’m just pleased I won here,” said Stenson, who tied the tournament record at 22-under 262. “This was a big goal of mine to win a golf tournament after all those nice finishes. My family is here. I’m going to see my kids in a little bit. It’s all good.”

“It wasn’t my week,” Woods said. “I didn’t play well and didn’t make anything, so consequently I wasn’t close to the lead.
