Mediate hails woods

With world number 157 Mediate holding a one-stroke lead after signing for a level-par 71, Woods holed a 15-foot birdie putt on the 18th to force an 18-hole play-off on Monday.
"I knew he would make that putt, that's what he does," said Mediate. "I can't believe I'm even in this situation at all - it's great."
Woods entered the final round with a one-stroke lead at three under, but failed to find his rhythm and carded his worst round of the week - a 73.
"That's actually one of the worst parts of the green, it's so bumpy down there," Woods said of his putt on 18.
"I told myself it was two-and-a-half balls outside to the right, but make sure you stay committed to it. And I did. I hit it good. It took forever to break, but it finally snuck in there at the end."
