Reavie records maiden win in Canada

Chez Reavie overcame a shaky start to his final round to secure his first PGA Tour victory at the the Canadian Open.

Reavie carded a one-under-par 70 to finish three strokes ahead of Billy Mayfair (68).

Holding a one-shot lead after completing his third round earlier on Sunday, Reavie shrugged off two bogeys in his first three holes to finish at 17-under 267 overall.

In his first full year on the tour, Reavie became the first player without a previous tournament victory to win this event since Jerry Pate in 1976.

He was the most unlikely victor, having posted a career-best fifth-place finish at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in January and failing to finished better than 34th in 19 events since.

Sean O'Hair (68) and Steve Marino (70) tied for third place at 271.

Canadian Mike Weir was unable to capitalise on the home-course advantage, signing for a 69 to finish in a three-way tie at 12-under 272.

Anthony Kim, who was paired with Reavie and trailed by one shot following a seven-under 64 yesterday, soared to a 75 to finish six shots off the pace.

Seeking his third win of the year, Kim struggled the entire day, carding five bogeys and one birdie in his round.

That came after he played 21 holes on Saturday in 11 under par.
