Geoff Ogilvy won the CA Championship on Monday, ending Tiger Woods’ six-month winning streak on a course where the world’s No. 1 player looked unstoppable in recent years.Ogilvy saved a round that seemed in peril with a chip-in for par at the 13th hole, and going on to claim his second victory in a World Golf Championship event. A final round of 1-under 71 was good enough for him to finish at 17 under, one shot better than Retief Goosen, Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh, all closing with 68s in the rain-delayed tournament. Woods was alone in fifth at 15 under, losing for the first time in his last eight starts worldwide.“It was going to end at some point,” Ogilvy said. “I’m very glad that I did it. It’s a nice place to do it, because he’s obviously owned this place for the last few years.”With the win, Ogilvy joined select company — only Woods and Darren Clarke have more than one WGC title. But this week won’t be remembered for that accomplishment: It’ll be known as the week someone finally took down Tiger. “As players, it’s nice to see somebody else lift a trophy for a change,” Goosen said.It was Woods’ first defeat since Sept. 3. He’d won five in a row on the US PGA Tour and six straight worldwide, a streak that spanned six months and was the longest overall of his career. Woods struggled to a third-round 72 while every other contender piled up birdies with alarming regularity, and simply dug such a deep hole that even he couldn’t escape.“I think it’s a great sign, to make that many mistakes and only be two back,” Woods said.
