LEMONT, Ill., Sept. 9 (UPI) -- Tiger Woods Sunday posted the 60th victory of his PGA Tour career, regaining the lead in the FedEx Cup race with a win at the BMW Championship in Lemont, Ill.
Woods one-putted 11 greens in shooting an 8-under 63 at the Cog Hill Golf & Country Club, for a two-shot triumph over Aaron Baddeley -- who took advantage of perfect scoring conditions to shoot a 66. Steve Stricker was alone in third at 266 following a 68.
With one tournament remaining in the PGA Tour's inaugural playoff series, Woods vaulted into the top spot with 112,733 points. Stricker is second with 109,600 and Phil Mickelson, who skipped this week's tournament, is third at 108,613.
K.J. Choi and Rory Sabbatini will be the only other players in the 30-man field at the Tour Championship next week with a mathematical chance to win the FedEx Cup and its top prize of $10 million.
Woods is fifth on the all-time PGA Tour win list, two behind Arnold Palmer. The career record holder is Sam Snead with 82.
Adam Scott finished fourth Sunday at 270 while Tim Clark and Justin Rose were at 271.
Vijay Singh, who began the four-week stretch of playoff golf in second place behind Woods, finished next-to-last among the 65 players who completed play this week.
