EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The oldest coach to win a Super Bowl will get at least three more shots at adding to his total. Tom Coughlin signed a two-year contract extension through the 2014 season on Wednesday with the New York Giants. The 65-year-old Coughlin, who led the team to its second Super Bowl under him in February, has coached the Giants since 2004. His contract was in its final year. "It has always been my belief that it is an honour and a privilege to be the head coach of the New York Giants," said Coughlin. "Im thankful to (co-owners) John Mara and Steve Tisch and their families for their support and the recognition of what our players and coaches have accomplished. And Im grateful for the working relationship Jerry Reese and I have. Weve got a lot of work left to do." Coughlin became the oldest coach with a Super Bowl title this year, and also took the Giants to the 2007 title. New York beat New England in the Super Bowl both times. Overall, Coughlin is 82-57 with the Giants. He also went 72-64 in eight seasons with Jacksonville, an expansion team he helped build from scratch. Last season was one of the roughest for the Giants and Coughlin, who stood at 7-7 and needed to win their final two games to get into the playoffs. They beat the Jets and Cowboys to win the NFC East, then defeated Atlanta, Green Bay, San Francisco and the Patriots for the title. "Tom is a winner and hes a fighter," Reese said. "And I enjoy and appreciate working with him. From where I sit, I couldnt ask for more in a head coach." Coughlins 154 total victories tie him with Hall of Famer Marv Levy for 17th on the NFLs career list. His 12 postseason victories tie him with former Pittsburgh coach Bill Cowher for the sixth-highest total in NFL history. "Tom is the right person in the right job at the right time," Giants co-owner Steve Tisch said. "I just really appreciate how our players respond to his leadership, and obviously our organization has benefited tremendously because of the relationship Tom has with his players."

Woods finished third in the Deutsche Bank Championship on Monday to earn $544,000 and push his career total to $100,350,700. Next on the list is Phil Mickelson -- more than $30 million behind at $66,805,498 after finishing fourth at the TPC Boston. "The purse increase helps," Woods said after a final-round 66 left him two strokes behind winner Rory McIlroy in the second week of the four-tournament FedEx Cup playoff. "I won fewer tournaments than Sam Snead has, but obviously he was in a different era. Its just that we happened to time it up right and happened to play well when the purses really had a nice spike up." Snead, the career leader with 82 PGA Tour victories, earned just $620,126 in a career that started in 1937. His biggest prize was $28,000 for a second-place finish in Milwaukee in 1968, and for most of his prime he played in tournaments with a total purse -- thats all the payoutss combined -- of less than $100,000.dddddddddddd Woods has won 74 tournaments, second all-time, including 38 times with a first prize of $1 million or more. His winnings come out to an average of $362,276.89 for each of his 277 career starts. But its not just good timing: Prize money skyrocketed on the PGA Tour after Woods went pro and brought huge crowds and television audiences to the sport. "It was nice to have a nice start to my career, and I won some majors early," he said. "I think we got some interest in the game of golf. A lot more youth, thats for sure." This weekends Deutsche Bank paid out $8 million, including the $1.44 million that went to McIlroy for his third victory of the year. By finishing strong -- he was in the 60s in all four rounds -- Woods remains in contention for the $10 million FedEx Cup bonus, which he has won twice. That money isnt even included in his official career earnings, nor is the hundreds of millions he has collected in endorsements.
