BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (November 6, 2016) -- Agustin Tarigo of Uruguay was able to hold onto his 54-hole lead and capture the Tailhade Cup hosted by the Los Lagartos Country Club. Tarigo finished his week with a 1-under 70 to post 6-under and finish two ahead of Cristobal Del Solar.

In the final round Tarigo settled in nicely right off the bat with birdies on the first two holes and then another on No. 9 for a bogey-free 3-under 33 to move to 8-under. Tarigo did slip up coming home with a pair of bogeys but by then he had created enough separation.

Florida State redshirt senior Cristobal Del Solar did try to make a charge on the weekend with rounds of 67-68 before ultimately ended up 6-under-par. Del Solar got his day off to a rocky start with a double-bogey that dropped him back to 1-under and four off the pace. Throughout the rest of the day he fought valiantly birdieing five times without a blemish only to come up short.

Juan Alvarez was third at 2-under while James Yoon and Kyle McLatchie were even-par in a share of fourth.

In the team competition Uruguay ran with it as Tarigo and Juan Alvarez combined to finish 12-under and 20 shots in front of second place Paraguay (+12). France (+13) was third.
