Tiger Woods is targeting the comeback title after his Chevron World Challenge win.

Tiger Woods has joked that he is targeting the comeback player of the year title in 2012 after ending his trophy drought.

The 14-time major winner secured his first win since the Australian Open in 2009 with a win at the Chevron World Challenge in California.

The American carded a final-round 69 to finish 10-under-par - with birdies on the final two holes - helping him beat Zach Johnson to the title by one shot.

"I think if I have a good year I should be on the ballot for comeback player of the year, so I'm excited about that," said Woods.

"People don't realise how hard it is to win golf tournaments, I've gone on streaks where I have won golf tournaments in a row, but still, each one, I don't think I've taken it for granted.

"As far as making the putt and the feeling afterwards, you know, I think I was screaming something, but it was just that I won the golf tournament. I pulled it off with one down, two to go."

The win lifts Woods from 52nd to 21st in the world rankings.
