Davis Love III’s long victory drought is over. Tiger Woods will have to wait awhile to get another chance.
Love won the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, N.C., on Sunday to become the third-oldest winner in PGA Tour history, while Woods’s season came to an abrupt end.
Love, 51, closed with a six-under-par 64 for a one-stroke victory over Jason Gore. “Any victory now is going to be really sweet when you’re over 50,” Love said.
The dominant story line all week at Sedgefield Country Club was the mere presence of Woods, who needed a victory to earn a spot in the FedEx Cup playoffs opener next week.
