Win 6: Sand and Deliver

Despite finding 16 bunkers in the last two rounds in the '07 event, Woods beat Charles Howell III to win by two — his third straight Buick Invitational win.

CHARLES HOWELL III: "The course requires a lot of drivers, so his length is an advantage. Also, you're just not going to hit every green out there, because [Torrey Pines South] is such a ball-buster — it's so long and tough, and that's where his short game comes into play. The course sets up perfect for him and his scoring ability — the guy can get the ball up and down and make par from nowhere. He's always hanging in there, and he has that ace in the hole: his putter. The greens are always bumpy, but it doesn't matter. The USGA will jack around with par a little bit and change some sight lines by cutting the fair-ways a bit differently, but at the end of the day par doesn't matter [when Woods is making birdies]. He's the guy to beat."
