Its his 15th major overall and comes after years of scandal and injuries. He's undergone three back surgeries and had personal issues, including a DUI in 2017 in which "an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications" led to his arrest.
The win marked the first time Woods came back on the final day to win a major championship.
