The 14-time major champion scored the clinching point in an 18 1/2-15 1/2 triumph by edging South African Richard Sterne 1-up in singles at the rain-soaked Muirfield Village, then said he has had enough of golf for a while.
“I’m a little bit sore and certainly I’m looking forward to not touching a club for a while,” said Woods.
Sterne took a bogey at 16 to put Woods 1-up and the US star halved the last two holes to win, knowing that singles matches before the Cup is clinched go extra holes to decide a winner.
Heavy rain fell all four days of the event, forcing Woods to play 31 holes over three matches on Saturday and 27 holes on Sunday.
