MIAMI, March 5 (UPI) -- Despite bogeys on his last two holes Sunday, Tiger Woods won the Ford Championship at Doral in Miami by one stroke over David Toms and Camilo Villegas.

It was a repeat title for the world's top-ranked men's golfer. Woods, who claimed a winner's check of $990,000, shot 3-under 69 in the final round to finish at 20-under-par 268.

"A W's a W," he said.

Toms (67) and Villegas (67) tied for second at 19-under 269.

"Days like today are the reason I play the PGA Tour," said Toms. "To have a chance battling the best player in the world and going through all emotions --that's what makes it fun."

Fredrik Jacobson (68) was fourth at 15-under 273. Lucas Glover (69) and Tag Ridings (71) shared fifth at 14-under 274.

Jeff Sluman (66), Jerry Kelly (68), Carlos Franco (69), Rich Beem (74) and Ernie Els (69) shared seventh at 13-under 275.
