Shortly after Roger Federer won his record 15th Grand Slam title at Wimbledon, Tiger Woods sent the Swiss a congratulatory text message. “I think it was 14-all when we were all on the putting green, and then I went to the range and I heard that he had held and then he broke to win,” Woods told reporters on Sunday. Woods said he sent the simple message, which read “great job. Now it's my turn”, before he teed off. The American then went on to win the AT&T National tournament he hosts by a stroke. Tournament host Woods fired a three-under-par 67 to finish at 13-under 267, one stroke better than Hunter Mahan, whose sizzling final round 62 had lifted him to the top of the leaderboard. But Tiger Woods snapped a tie with Mahan by rolling in a 20-foot birdie putt on the par-five 16th before parring the final two holes at the pristine course outside Washington, D.C. The final round was expected to be a duel between Woods and Anthony Kim, but Kim stumbled midway through the final round and finished in third place, four strokes off the pace. Kim, who began the day tied with Woods for the lead, had two birdies, three bogeys and a slew of missed opportunities to defend his title. Mahan opened the day six strokes behind the leaders but stormed back into contention by matching the Congressional course record Kim set during the first round on Thursday. Mahan began the day not even on Woods' radar screen. “What Hunter did today was pretty impressive,” Woods said after securing a $1 million payday for his 68th career title. “I certainly didn't see that score out there. American Bryce Molder shot a final-round 68 to finish in fourth place, five shots behind Woods, and one shot better than US Open champion Lucas Glover and Brandt Snedeker. Yi wins Classic In Ohio, South Korean's Yi Eunjung birdied the first playoff hole to beat American Morgan Pressel and capture the LPGA Jamie Farr Classic on Sunday. The 21-year-old Yi captured her first career tour title also qualified for next week's US Women's Open after an even par-71 to finish at 18-under 266. Her weekend included a brilliant 61 on Saturday. Three of the top five finishers at the $1.4 million event were South Koreans. The other two are Korean/American Michelle Kim and Pressel. Pressel made a final round charge with a four-under 67 but fell short in the playoff. The pair travelled back to the 18th hole at Highland Meadows Golf Club and both found the short grass off the tee. Both players laid up in the fairway, then Pressel knocked her approach to 25 feet on the fringe. Yi placed her third shot 14 feet from the hole. Pressel missed her birdie putt left and tapped in for par. Yi rolled a 14-footer in for birdie and the win. Kim Song-hee three-putted for bogey at the last to drop into a share of third place at 16-under-par 268. She needed a birdie on the final hole to get into the playoff. Kim closed with a two-under 69 to end alongside Wie (64) and Lee Seon-Hwa (67). The 64 for Wie was a career-best round on the LPGA Tour.
