Another neck-to-neck record by a PGA Tour pro

Matt Kuchar tied Tiger Woods for the most victories since the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play was founded in 1999 with his dominant 7-and-6 victory against Si Woo Kim on Friday. At the only match-play competition on the TOUR, Kuchar, who went 2-0-1 this week at Austin Country Club, increased his career record to 36-11-5.

The 44-year-old, nine-time TOUR winner never trailed on a morning in Central Texas that started with a hazy mist and ended in the sunniest of skies. He was the oldest player on the field. He won five holes in a row beginning at the fourth hole to go up by one, then defeated Kim on the par-5 12th hole where both players scored birdies. With 52 matches played, Kuchar is tied for second place all-time.
