NOTES<br />
Tiger Woods became the first player to win<br />
THE <strong>TOUR</strong> Championship presented by Coca-<br />
Cola multiple times when he won the 2007 title<br />
at East Lake Golf Club. Woods also won the<br />
tournament in 1999 at Champions Golf Club in<br />
Houston. In his career, Woods has two wins and<br />
six top-10 finishes in 11 starts in the event.<br />
Tiger Woods’ winning score of 257 in 2007 was<br />
the lowest 72-hole score in tournament history,<br />
breaking the mark of 263 set by Bart Bryant in<br />
2005. Woods also set a tournament record for<br />
the lowest 54-hole score with his 191 total. The<br />
old mark was 196 by Bart Bryant in 2005.<br />
Tiger Woods’ total was the third lowest in <strong>TOUR</strong><br />
history, surpassed by Tommy Armour III’s record 254<br />
at the Valero Texas Open and Mark Calcavecchia’s<br />
256 at the Phoenix Open and equaled Mike<br />
Souchak’s 257 total at the Texas Open.<br />

NOTEWORTHY: Tiger Woods became the inaugural champion of the<br />
FedExCup as he posted two wins and a tie for second in his three starts<br />
in the <strong>PGA</strong> <strong>TOUR</strong> Playoffs for the FedExCup. Woods’ seventh victory of<br />
the 2007 season gave him 61 career wins, fifth all-time (Arnold Palmer<br />
is fourth with 62). Zach Johnson set the East Lake Golf Club course<br />
record in the third round with a 10-under-par 60. Johnson’s 60 was the<br />
low round of the 2007 <strong>PGA</strong> <strong>TOUR</strong> season. Woods’ 72-hole total of 257<br />
broke THE <strong>TOUR</strong> Championship record (Bart Bryant, 263, 2005).<br />
