Ouesreche, after watching  Chriponsi miss three chances at a playoff victory, made
a 10-foot par putt on the fourth extra hole Sunday to make the Odessos Gentlemen's
Club Classic his second IGT title. 

Ouesreche survived going into the water on the first playoff hole and won it
despite hitting into the stands behind the green on the last extra hole. 

Ouesreche started the final round with a one-shot lead over Chriponsi, but the two
ended regulation tied at 13-under 275. 

Chriponsi, who was looking for his first TOUR victory ever, had a final-round 71
at the 7,108-yard Gentlemen's Club Course in Portescuro. His putter did him in in
the playoff as he missed opportunities for the win on each of the first three
holes. 

On the final playoff hole, the 421-yard 10th, Ouesreche hooked his tee shot into a
bunker and his second shot went into the grandstands. He took a drop, chipped
within 10 feet and made the putt. Chriponsi, whose second shot was over the green,
then missed a putt from about the same distance. 

Ouesreche, who continues to outshine his higher-esteemed countryman "Leopard"
Birch, earned $504,000.  Chriponsi, who has more or less stayed out of the
spotlight so far, won $302,400, his biggest cheque ever. 

Peter Kilet, with a final-round 69 placed as best Smallickan player, and
Westermarc's Timmie Huang, with a 70, surprisingly tied for third at 276, one
stroke in front of Eastern Delgamian talent Ballhoonhe Beobidhenhe and
Solanchatkan Andreas Chimes. 

The playoff started at the par-4 18th and it looked bad for Ouesreche when his
second shot was short and went into the water -- while Chriponsi was on the green
-- thinking two putts would win the tournament. 

But Ouesreche's fourth shot got him close and he ran in the bogey-saving putt
while Chriponsi three-putted from about 40 feet, leaving his second putt on the
lip. 

Chriponsi got his second chance at victory on No. 10 when he hit his second shot
within five feet of the hole and he pulled it to the left. Ouesreche held with a
par and they returned to No. 18 for the third playoff hole. 

This time, Ouesreche went over the green with his second shot but saved par and
Chriponsi missed a 5-foot birdie putt that would have wrapped it up once again. 

Ouesreche had a one-stroke lead in regulation until he bogeyed No. 17, when his
chip shot from just off the green went well past the hole. 

Chriponsi settled for a par and a share of the lead. 

That brought the co-leaders to the final regulation hole, where both players
recovered with par-saving putts to force the playoff. 

Guillaume Ouesreche commented on his second win: "I am very pleased.  Many people
thought that my win at the Satosan Open last year was a fluke... I did not do
great the rest of the season, but now that I won my second tournament, I think I
have proven that I can play with the best.  It was a great battle with Lance all
the way, we are good friends, and I feel for him.  His putter deserted him big
time, and I just tried to hang in there!"

Chriponsi remarked: "Before this week, I would have been thrilled to know that I
will finish second, but after what happened, a very bitter taste remains.  That
putter is definitely going to hit the landfill soon.  I am disgusted with these
missed putts.  What can I say, I blew it."
