11/30/2008 - Santiago, Chile (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Argentina's Rafael Gomez shot a three-under 68 in the final round Sunday to win the Canadian Tour's 2009 season opener.
Gomez won the Sport Frances Open by one shot at seven-under-par 277, earning a Canadian Tour exemption for two years. He claimed $25,600 for the victory.
"I have won five times this year and this one means a lot," said Gomez, whose other wins have come on the Tour of the Americas, a co-sponsor of the event.
Daniel Im of the United States had an even-par 71 and took second place at six-under 278, with Clodomiro Carranza (68) of Argentina finishing third at five-under 279.
Third-round leader Christoph Guenther stumbled to a 75 and fell into a tie for fourth place with Hugo Leon (71) at four-under 280.
Gomez was working on a spotless round -- four birdies and 13 pars -- until the final hole at Sport Frances Golf Club, where he three-putted for a closing bogey.
He rolled his birdie putt four feet past the hole, then missed the one coming back. Gomez paid for his overconfidence with a bogey, but it didn't cost him the win.
"When it belongs to you, no one can take it away," said Gomez.
The Canadian Tour remains in South America next week for the Argentine Masters, where 2007 U.S. Open winner Angel Cabrera will headline the field.

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
