Sean O'Hair, who was a +1800 favorite heading into Sunday, seized control with an eight-foot birdie on the 16th hole. He was on the practice green when Lucas Glover (+1400) failed to make a birdie on the 18th hole that would have forced a playoff.

Glover and Bubba Watson (+2500) finished one shot behind.

Woods, who started the day as the -120 fave, finished with 10 straight pars for a 72 to finish alone in fourth, two shots behind.

Zach Johnson (+200), who had a two-shot lead to start the final round, imploded on the par-3 second hole. The former Masters champion never recovered, closing with a 76. O'Hair was the only golfer of the final 18 players to tee off Sunday to break 70.
