Woods did enough in the final round at the Maryland course

Tiger Woods clinched his 68th PGA Tour win at the PGA National in Maryland, despite a superb last-round surge from fellow American Hunter Mahan.

Woods, who shared the overnight lead with Anthony Kim, took the title by one shot after recording a three-under 67 for a total of 13 under par.

Mahan managed a marvellous round of 62 to tie for the lead before Woods pulled clear with a birdie at the 16th.

Kim finished on nine under a shot ahead of American compatriot Bryce Molder.

It was Woods' third win of the season having triumphed at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and last month's Memorial.
