Wrapping up a dominant 19-under showing at the Blue Monster, Woods fired a 71 on Sunday. Two bogeys on the back nine brought Woods closer to the pack but he still edged Steve Stricker by two strokes."I played well this week and thank you to Steve [Stricker] for the putting lesson," Woods told Steve Sands of Golf Channel after the win, referencing the impromptu putting lesson he received earlier in the week. "It was one of those weeks where I felt pretty good about how I was playing. And I made some putts and pretty much got it rolling."According to Golfweek, Woods had never surrendered a lead of three or more strokes when atop the leaderboard at the start of the final round. That streak continues. Woods picked up his 75th PGA win at Torrey Pines in January.
