Golfer Tiger Woods scoops fifth straight win on PGA Tour
Golf star Tiger Woods scooped an incredible fifth straight win at the PGA Tour tournament with a final-round 63 at the Deutsche Bank Championship in Boston.
Tiger Woods, who finished on 16 under par, had been behind Vijay Singh by three going into the final day but at the end he was two shots ahead of his rival, who carded a 68.
World number one Tiger Woods has won six consecutive tournaments in 1999-2000 but Byron Nelson holds the record, winning 11 in a row in 1945.
However, Tiger Woods is now out on his own in fifth in the all-time standings for PGA Tour victories with 53.
After a second place at the Western Open, Tiger Woods had wins at the Open, Buick Open, USPGA, WGC-Bridgestone Invitational and now in Boston.
"It's fun when things like that come together," said Tiger Woods, and he added, "I talked to Hank (Haney, his coach) last night because I wasn't happy with my swing and it was better today."
