Geoff Ogilvy was dubbed the marathon man after winning the 2006 WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship and the Australian has followed a similar pattern to reach the quarter-finals at this year’s event. The world number eight needed extra holes to win his first two matches at Dove Mountain before beating Colombia’s Camilo Villegas 2&1 in Friday’s third round. Three years ago, Ogilvy completed a tournament record of 129 holes over the five days, a significant factor he felt in his path to victory at La Costa in Carlsbad, California. “I think it helps,” Ogilvy told reporters after reaching the last eight at the event for ...

So much for that perfect-season talk. Not only has Tiger Woods been beaten, Geoff Ogilvy did it on a course where the world’s No. 1 player looked unstoppable in recent years. Ogilvy won the CA Championship on Monday, saving 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 ... Read Full Story

Tiger Woods’ unbeaten streak lives another day. Barring a big comeback, it’ll live for only one more day. Geoff Ogilvy got to 17 under through nine holes and held a two-shot lead over Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh at the soggy CA Championship, which won’t finish until Monday because of a three-hour weather delay during the final round. Furyk was 15 under through 10, Singh through nine. Retief Goosen and Graeme Storm were three shots back and Steve Stricker made a huge charge, shooting a final-round 63 to finish 13 under, four shots back of Ogilvy. Play will resume Monday at 8:30 a.m., when ... Read Full Story

Geoff Ogilvy can cross another accomplishment off his list—winning a golf tournament in his home country. The 2006 U.S. Open champion won the Australian PGA by two strokes Sunday, closing with a 3-under-par 69 at the Hyatt Regency resort course. Third-round leader Mathew Goggin faded with three bogeys in seven holes and finished second after a 72. “It has been a long time coming in Australia,” said Ogilvy, who turned professional in 1999. “Now Adam can answer them.” Ogilvy was referring to Adam Scott, an Australian who hasn’t won at home despite a career-high ranking of No. 3 and 14 victories around the world. ...

Former winner Geoff Ogilvy breathed a sigh of relief after battling his way into the third round of the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship with a Houdini-like escape on Thursday. The Australian world number eight came from two down after 15 holes to scrape past Japan’s Shingo Katayama on the 19th green at Dove Mountain’s Ritz-Carlton Golf Club. It was the second match in a row where Ogilvy was taken to extra holes, having beaten 2002 champion Kevin Sutherland of the U.S. after 19 in the opening round. “In the end, I got lucky but I played kind of well in that little stretch in ...
