91st PGA WINNER: Y.E.Yang

The 19th hole was emotion packed at the 91st PGA Championship. Tiger Woods viving for his 5th PGA Championship and 110th ranked Y.E. Yang viving for his first PGA Championship, went club to club for the title.

Tiger started strong, and quickly lost his edge -- putting was the culprit. So close yet so far away sums up Tiger's chance at winning his 5th PGA title.

Yang finished 8 with a total score of 280. Woods, his closest competitor, posted a 5 283 that earned him a disappointing second place finish in the tournament.

Y. E. Yang is the first Asian to win the PGA Championship.
