DUBLIN, Ohio – It was only appropriate that Tiger Woods tied Jack Nicklaus for the second-most career PGA Tour victories on Sunday on a course the Golden Bear built.

Now Woods heads to the Olympic Golf Club in San Francisco in two weeks primed to tie Nicklaus, Ben Hogan, Bobby Jones and Willie Anderson for the most wins in the U.S. Open.

Woods, the U.S. Open champion in 2000, 2002 and 2008, won his fifth Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club and 73rd Tour title with a final-round, 5-under-par 67 under sun-drenched skies. He finished at 9-under 279 to win by two shots over Andres Romero (67) and Rory Sabbatini.

Woods caused a roar reminiscent of his best days when he chipped in for birdie from 50 feet on the 16th hole that gave him a share of the lead, a shot Nicklaus said was "the most unbelievably, gutsy shot I've ever seen."

Woods made a charge early in the round with birdies on four of his first eight holes but then made bogeys at Nos. 8 and 10 to fall back. But his late charge included a two-putt birdie at the par-5 15th, the chip in at 16 and a closing birdie from 9 feet at the 18th.

Woods entered the season not having won on the Tour since 2009. Now, with is win earlier in the season at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, only he, Hunter Mahan and Jason Dufner have won twice this season.
