The win is the 80th title of his prolific career.

"I can't believe I pulled this off," Woods said during the trophy presentation.

Since his last win, the 42-year-old had four surgeries and only returned to competition in December 2017.

When he first returned, he was rated No. 1,199 in the world. He's now at No. 13.

Fairytale comeback

Before his win on Sunday, September 24, Woods’ last victory was at the Bridgestone Invitational at Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio in 2013.

“I’ve been sitting on 79 for about five years now, and to get 80 is a pretty damned good feeling,”  Woods said on his official website.

His girlfriend Erica Herman was present to celebrate with him after the win as they hugged and kissed on the 18th fairway at the East Lake, Georgia.

Woods’ win makes a fairytale comeback for him after years of washouts.

After the win, golf platform Skratch published a video of Woods watching at several clips of pundits and journalists saying he would never win another tournament again.

His victory on Sunday also sparked up Twitter as he became the number two trending item on Twitter Nigeria.
