It took five days and multiple restarts. However, Geoff Ogilvy finally claimed his wire to wire win at the CA Championship.

After a lengthy rain delay Sunday afternoon, the final round was halted due to darkness until Monday morning. Ogilvy held of Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh’s back nine charges for his first win since the 2006 U.S. Open. "Last year, I had a reasonable year but I wasn’t that happy with it. I sat down and set about having a better year this year and working on things that I didn’t like, not really rededicating, because it’s not like I’m not dedicated, but finding a balance with the family and the golf and getting it all worked out, because you know you can get it worked out, and I really feel like I did that this off-season, had a really good off-season and feel like I’m playing pretty good," said Ogilvy.

Ogilvy did not have a single birdie in his final nine holes. But a key par save on the par three 13th was pivotal in his win. After finding the left rough off the tee, Ogilvy flubbed his first chip shot leaving it in the rough. His second came out hot but hit the pin and went in for par. The serendipity of the shot was not lost on Ogilvy who commented, "It was probably not that lucky to hit the flag, but it was very lucky to go in. You quite often see guys hit chips like that that slam into the pin and stop a foot away or something. That’s quite a common occurrence, but for it to go in is pretty fortunate."

Vijay Singh played in the final group with Ogilvy. Despite bogies on 13 and 14, two birdies on 15 and 16 Singh was one stroke behind Ogilvy going into 18. Singh’s approach shot finished on the fringe of the 18th green leaving a makeable chip. His chip finished a foot short of the hole assuring Ogilvy of the win. Singh said, "Geoff played well. I have to give him credit. He hit a lot of great shots and putted nicely. Somebody had to win, somebody had to lose."

Ogilvy went on to par all holes on the back nine. Looking back at the names directly behind him on the leaderboard Ogilvy’s win is even more impressive.  "There was a fair bit of some talent on the top 10 of the leaderboard. It’s pretty nice to come in in front of them, ending the streak. It was going to end at some point. I’m very glad that I did it. It’s a nice place to do it, too, because he’s obviously owned this place for the last few years," said Ogilvy.
