Woo Hwang chose to go head to head against Tony Vlachos in the final showdown and lost, making Tony the Sole Survivor and winner of Survivor: Cagayan.

Kass And Woo Win Last Two Immunity Challenges

Woo reached the end of Survivor: Cagayan and had the opportunity to choose who he would take with him to the two-person finals. He could have picked Kass, a choice many believe would have guaranteed a win, but instead, his integrity lead him to pick Tony.

But first, the contestants went through their first immunity challenge in front of their family/loved ones who had been flown out to visit for the finale. Kass wins the challenge, and Spencer is sent home during the Tribal Council.

Kass, Woo and Tony went head-to-head in the last immunity challenge, which consisted of a giant maze and puzzle.

Tony Wins Survivor: Cagayan

At the jury, Woo kicks Kass out of the game, in a move that shocks everyone. Tony previously gave Woo a speech about honor and integrity, and it looks like the words stuck with Woo. He just couldn’t bare to keep undeserving Kass in the game. In the end, Woo only gets one vote for best game played from Trish, and Tony wins the Survivor crown and the $1 million prize in a landslide – perhaps due, in no small part, to Spencer’s passionate lobbying.

While most would expect Tony to be gloating during the live finale, he instead admitted that he felt bad about how ruthless he was to reach the finals.

“When the stakes are this high, and you backstab people and you burn people to get here, I mean, the wounds are deep and they scar forever,” Tony admitted in a finale interview.

Tony also said that he entered into Survivor knowing that he would have to do things he wouldn’t be proud of in the end if he wanted to win the million-dollar prize.

“To get where I got, I knew what I had to do to get there, but I wasn’t proud of what I did, you know, being that I hurt so many people that I bonded with,” Tony added.

Tony, whose wife is expecting their second child, also revealed what he plans on doing with his prize money.

“[The] first thing I’m going to do is set up a college fund for my kids, because education is huge,” Tony told The Hollywood Reporter.
