Woods to meet Toms in final
CARLSBAD (California), March 2: World number one Tiger Woods and former PGA champion David Toms advanced to the final of the World Match Play Championship on Saturday.
Woods, who earlier in the day defeated Scott Hoch five and four to reach the semi-finals, had his most difficult match of the championship against 22-year-old Adam Scott of Australia.
Scott, who had beaten Jay Haas two and one in the quarter-finals, continually put pressure on the world number one and even had a two-up lead after seven holes.
Woods, however, then birdied the next two holes to make the turn level before Scott made a huge mistake by three-putting the par-three.
While Scott birdied the 14th to square the match, Woods then grabbed the lead again with a birdie at 15.—Reuters
