Los Angeles, February 17

Adam Scott fired a 1-under-par 70 to win the Genesis Invitational, and this time the Australian’s victory at Riviera Country Club is official.

On a challenging day that saw world No. 1 Rory McIlroy card a 2-over 73 and tournament host Tiger Woods stumble to a 6-over 77, Scott countered two bogeys and a double-bogey with five birdies to build an 11-under total of 273. He finished two strokes in front of South Korea’s Kang Sung (69) and Americans Scott Brown (68) and Matt Kuchar (72) on Sunday. Woods’s day could hardly have gone worse. Already 15 off the pace to start the day, the 15-time Major champion dropped five shots in his last six holes as he stumbled home with a 6-over 77. — AFP

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
