A last nine of 30 saw 37-year-old Guy Boros get up and win his second Buy.Com Tour event by two from Jeff Gove. But as much as the talking point was Boros' strong finish so was the downfall of John Rollins. Rollins a winner earlier in the season dropped four shots in the last five holes after holding a commanding lead over those nearest with nine to go.
Rollins seems almost certain to get his US Tour card next year but a win here would have sealed the deal and he still has a little work to do to ensure he is playing with the big boys next year. Second placed Jeff Gove is in a similar position to Rollins almost there but not yet assured.
Anthony Painter was the leading Australian in fourth place his form seeming to be coming around at this late stage of the season. Queensland's Rod Pampling continues his consistent run of form and is now in third place on the money list following his 11th place finish here.
