Woods Wins Atlantic Coast Conference

Cheyenne Woods

Tiger Woods' niece Cheyenne Woods, a college student at Wake Forest, won the Atlantic Coast Conference individual strokeplay title by five shots.

Cheyenne said on Tuesday that maturing in the shadow of her famous uncle has been a positive because it has "definitely gotten my name out there." She says dealing with the spotlight that comes with her lineage has made her better at dealing with the spotlight - essential in an individual sport like golf.

She was under par for all three rounds at the par-71 Sedgefield Country Club, shooting a 5-under 208 to win the ACC championship by seven strokes.
