Nick Watney beat Dustin Johnson by two shots to claim his first World Golf Championships title two years after he came within a whisker of forcing a playoff against Phil Mickelson at the same event.

Watney carded a 5-under-par 67 yesterday to finish the Cadillac Championship at the TPC Blue Monster in Miami at 16-under par. In 2009 at the course, Watney left a 30-foot (9.1 meter) birdie attempt at the final hole on the lip of the cup, giving Mickelson a one-shot win.
