tiger-sinks-his-teeth-into-u-s-open-win.jpgAmerican golf champ Tiger Woods has wrapped up another big victory on the green with Monday’s U.S. Open playoff win, his third Open title.

Golf fans lining the course, and others watching on television had the excitement of this weekend’s Open extended today after Sunday’s play ended with a tie between Woods and fellow American Rocco Mediate.

It took 19 more holes before Woods emerged this afternoon as the winner of the 108th U.S. Open at Torrey Pines in San Diego, California.

The world’s number one golfer won with a two-putt par on No. 7, the first sudden-death hole. Mediate failed to sink his par putt from 20 feet.
