BETHESDA, Md. (AP) – Tiger Woods bagged his third tournament title of the year on Sunday at Congressional, passing Jack Nicklaus for second place on the all-time list. He’s eight victories shy of the career record set by Sam Snead.
Woods closed with a 2-under-par 69 to finish at minus-8, one stroke better than Bo Van Pelt, who carded an even-par 71.
Woods moves to the top of the PGA Tour money list and the FedEx Cup standings for the first time since September 2009
NEW YORK (AP) – Texas outfielder Josh Hamilton drew a record total of more than 11 million votes and is one of three Rangers scheduled to start this month’s All-Star Game. He’ll be joined in Kansas City by catcher Mike Napoli and third baseman Adrian Beltre (BEHL’-tray).

The Yankees are sending shortstop Derek Jeter, second baseman Robinson Cano (kan-OH’) and outfielder Curtis Granderson.

The rest of the NL’s starting lineup consists of Braves second baseman Dan Uggla, Reds first baseman Joey Votto (VAH’-toh), second baseman Rafael Furcal (fur-KAHL’) of the Cardinals, outfielder Matt Kemp of the Dodgers and Cardinals outfielder Carlos Beltran.
