Villegas won the final hole to pocket USD 70,000, while Mike Weir was shut out for the second straight year. It was a rare appearance by the world’s top player, whose schedule leaves little room for such forays. Woods was glowing afterward, the stunning loss to YE Yang in the PGA Championship a week ago erased by a few swings for charity.
“Today was incredible, to come here and bring awareness to what Notah is trying to do,” said Woods, who won five holes to three for Villegas.
“It’s great to see what he’s doing, to put his heart, soul and passion into something.”
