Tiger Woods is back on top of the golfing world.

He added a cherry to the top of his No. 1 sundae after Team Albany defeated Team Lake Nona (via Fox Sports) in a playoff on Tuesday at the 2013 Tavistock Cup, breaking Lake Nona's four-year run as champ alongside fellow stars and Albany teammates Justin Rose, Tim Clark and Ryder Cup nemesis Ian Poulter.

The win caps a stellar week-and-a-half for Woods' golfing and professional life and should give the new World No. 1 an inordinate amount of momentum heading into his biggest test of the 2013 season—the Masters at Augusta.



Tiger won in his personal life in mid-March, co-announcing his relationship with skiing star Lindsey Vonn on Facebook (via ESPN).

Woods earned that place after winning at Bay Hill over the weekend and continued his hot streak in group play at the Tavistock Cup.



Woods tied with teammate Tim Clark by shooting a 73 at Isleworth on Tuesday and then teamed with Poulter in the playoff round to help his team capture the Tavistock victory.
