Woods made a sensational chip, aiming 20 feet to the left of the hole and using the sloping green to run the ball towards the hole.

famous call of Tiger Woods' chip-in on the 16th hole.
"Chris is a tough competitor and a fighter. He's never going to back off and he proved that again." - Tiger Woods
on the gutsy final round of runner up Chris Dimarco
.
""I was just trying to throw the ball up there on the hill and let it feed down there and hopefully have a makeable putt. All of a sudden, it looked really good, and it looked like how could it not go in, and how did it not go in, and all of a sudden it went in." - Tiger Woods on his remarkable chip on 16.
"I went out and shot 68 around here on Sunday, which is a very good round, and 12-under is usually good enough to win. It was just that I was playing against Tiger Woods." - Chris DiMarco on his runner up finish.
"I would let it hurt if I gave it away but I didn't. I really didn't." - Chris DiMarco
"You know I played him as hard as I could down the stretch, birdieing a bunch of holes coming down the back nine and putting it on him really. And since I put that behind me and went out and put a good number on the back nine, I feel very good." - Chris DiMarco on his final round.
"That was a hard-fought week with the rain delays, I didn't get off to the greatest of starts. - Tiger Woods on the long week of golf.
