Whether he was playing money games with the other caddies in Argentina or playing mini-tours on his long road to the big leagues in golf,Fabian Gomez couldn't recall ever making seven straight birdies.
He won't forget doing so Sunday in the Sony Open.
That amazing birdie streak -- with no putt longer than 12 feet -- carried him to an 8-under 62, and the 37-year-old Argentine won with his 11th birdie of the day on the second playoff hole to outlast Brandt Snedeker.
