03/15/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Derek Lamely fired a six-under 66 in the final round Monday to come from behind and win the rain-delayed Puerto Rico Open.
Lamely, who won for the first time on the PGA Tour, completed the event at 19- under-par 269.
The win was history-making too. Lamely became the first player since Keith Clearwater in 1987 to tee off on the 10th tee and win the title.
That was possible because of the lengthy rain delays over the first two days. The third round was finished earlier Monday and players remained in the same groups for the final round.
Lamely closed within four of third-round leader Kevin Streelman thanks to a third-round, nine-under 63 that he finished Monday morning.
In the final round, Lamely birdied 16 and 17 just after Streelman made double- bogey at the first. That turn of events gave Lamely the lead, and he never looked back from there.
Kris Blanks closed with a three-under 69 to take second at minus-17.
Steve Wheatcroft (70), Streelman (73), James Nitties (69) and Brendon de Jonge (68) shared third at 16-under-par 272. Blanks and Wheatcroft could have forced a playoff with an eagle on the par-five 18th at Trump International Golf Club, but closed with a par and a bogey respectively.

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.
