Westwood, needing a top-five finish to retain top spot in the rankings, produced three birdies in his last five holes in a best-of-the-day 67.
His 12-under-par total was just enough to defeat Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez, who missed a 15-foot putt for a play-off on the final green of his one-under 71.
Home favourite Sang-Hyun Park, playing in just his third European Tour event, was third at 10-under-par after a final-round 69, while American Dustin Johnson had a 69 of his own to finish a stroke further back in fourth.
