To the very end, golf's 2010 season keeps throwing curve balls.
The four top ranked players in the world -- England's newly anointed No. 1 Lee Westwood and closest challengers Tiger Woods, Martin Kaymer and Phil Mickelson -- all came to the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions in Shanghai, China, only to see Italy's Francesco Molinari steal the show.
Leading wire-to- wire, Molinari finished with a 5-under 67 at Sheshan International for his first win this season, and only the second of his career. He became the first Italian to claim a World Golf Championships title, posting 19 under and one shot in front of Westwood.
"It wasn't easy," Molinari, who turns 28 on Monday, said. "I'm just really proud of the way I played and the way I handled myself. Lee is No. 1 in the world, and he was playing some fantastic golf. It was a great finish at the end."
