Tiger Woods caps comeback by winning Tour Championship

ATLANTA - Tiger Woods cruised to his 80th PGA Tour victory on Sunday, capping a historic comeback from career-threatening back injuries with a safe, workmanlike performance that has been the hallmark of his career.

Woods birdied the first hole at East Lake Golf Club, then never let anyone get closer than two shots - with two holes to go -- as he captured the Tour Championship, his first victory in more than five years.

He parred the last hole to shoot 1-over-par 70 and beat Billy Horschel by two strokes.
