Tiger Woods has finished a year as the PGA Tour’s leading money winner nine times in his career and has clinched that title for a 10th time with a dominant showing in 2013. With one tournament left to play, Woods has established a nearly $3 million lead over Matt Kuchar thanks to five tournament victories in 15 appearances.

The last time Woods was the tour’s leading money winner was in 2009 when he won $10,508,163, but that year was marred in controversy that finished with Woods taking five months of professional leave from golf until April 2010.
In the three years that followed, Matt Kuchar, Luke Donald and Rory McIlroy earned the most winnings, respectively. Kuchar passed Phil Mickelson earlier in the month to take second place behind Woods, but is still far removed from leading.
