(AP) -- Not even a sloppy finish could keep Tiger Woods from another win at Torrey Pines.
 
Woods led by as many as eight shots on the back nine Monday until a painfully slow finish led to some indifferent shots in the final hour of the Farmers Insurance Open.
 
No matter.
 
Woods closed with an even-par 72 for a four-shot victory.

 He won the tournament for the seventh time, and picked up his record eighth win as a pro at Torrey Pines, which includes the 2008 U.S. Open.
 
Woods had a six-shot lead with 11 holes to play when he returned Monday to complete the fog-delayed tournament and no one got close.
 
It was the 75th career win for Woods on the PGA Tour, seven behind the record held by Sam Snead.
