AKRON, United States (AFP) — Tiger Woods won the World Golf Championships Bridgestone Invitational here Sunday to become the first player in US PGA Tour history to claim two hat-tricks of wins in the same event.

The world No. 1 came from a shot behind in the final round, carding a bogey-free five-under-par 65 to blow away the field in intermittent rain at Firestone Country Club.

He finished at eight-under 272, eight strokes ahead of third-round leader Rory Sabbatini (74) as well as Englishman Justin Rose (68).

It marked Woods' sixth victory the past eight times the World Golf Championships event has been played at Firestone. His first three victories came from 1999-2001.
