Hadwin wrapped up the event with a terrific four-under 68 during Sunday’s final round, which got him to -7 for the tournament and into a six-way tie for third, six strokes back of winner Carlos Ortiz.

Hadwin has made the cut at all six Web.com Tour events to date in 2014, highlighted by a trio of top-10 finishes, including a victory at the Chile Open and an eighth-place result at the Pacific Rubiales Colombia Championship.
