President Woods, a golfer, lost final standing (8)

I believe the answer is:

prestige

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'standing' is the definition.
(prestige is a kind of standing)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for prestige that I've seen before include "[GLAMOUR]" , "Distinction or high reputation" , "Standing in the community, status" , "Widespread respect for high quality" , "Highly-regarded" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
