Davis Love III Claims Wyndham Golf Championship

Davis Love III's long victory drought is over. Tiger Woods will have to wait a while to get another chance. Love won the Wyndham Championship on Sunday to become the third-oldest winner in PGA Tour history, while Woods' season came to an abrupt end.

Love, 51, closed with a 6-under 64 for a 1-stroke victory over Jason Gore.

The dominant storyline all week at Sedgefield Country Club was the mere presence of Woods, who needed a victory to earn a spot in the FedEx Cup playoffs opener next week.

He was poised to challenge Sunday, starting just 2 strokes off the lead. But he only had one birdie during his first 10 holes, dropping way off the pace with a triple-bogey on the par-4 11th. Woods shot a 70, finished 4 strokes back and ended at No. 178 in the standings, well outside the cutoff of 125.

Now comes a break before his next tournament, the Frys.com Open in October in Northern California. It's the first event of the tour's 2015-16 season.

Love -- who started at No. 186 -- played himself into The Barclays by earning 500 FedEx Cup points and $972,000 in prize money.
