With this victory, Tiger Woods became the first player to successfully defend the British Open title since Tom Watson in 1982-83.
This was Woods' third win on the PGA Tour in 2006 and his 49th in his PGA Tour career.
Woods is now a perfect 11-0 in major championships when he takes at least a share of the 54-hole lead.
* There was some sort of protest on the 18th green when the final pair waited to hit their approaches. Purple paint cannisters were broken on the green, but it did not impact either players' shots.
* Chris DiMarco moved into sixth position on the United States Ryder Cup team points list, almost assuring himself a spot on Tom Lehman's team in about one month. The team will be finalized after the PGA Championship. Lucas Glover was bounced from the top 10.
* The easiest hole in Sunday's final round was the 554-yard, par-five 16th, which played to an average of 4.45. It was also the easiest hole of the week with an average of 4.41.
* Carnoustie will host next year's British Open Championship. The last time the event was held at Carnoustie was 1999 when Paul Lawrie won a playoff against 1997 winner Justin Leonard and Jean van de Velde. The trio got in at plus-six, but the tournament is most famous for Van de Velde's horrible collapse on the 72nd hole.
I've had a day or two to think about this British Open and now feel ready to make this somewhat bold statement - I think this was his greatest major victory since the Masters in 1997.
Welcome back.
Last time we do that.
I can be more critical of Tiger Woods than anyone on the planet and my beliefs have some merit. Either Woods doesn't recognize his sociological impact on not just golf or sports, but the world, or he doesn't acknowledge it. Either one is borderline irresponsible.
That all changed Sunday afternoon. After winning, Woods could not stop crying. Or hugging caddy Steve Williams in what might have been the most awkward male- to-male contact since "Oz" went off the air. It all had to do with dad.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
