VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Mark Calcavecchia managed just one birdie over the weekend at the Bell Canadian Open. It was just enough to end a four-year winless streak, however, as he closed out a 1-over 71 Sunday for a one-stroke victory at the Bell Canadian Open.

Calcavecchia, whose only birdie since the second round came at the 475-yard, par-4 fifth on Sunday, had a 5-under 275 total, the highest winning score for a full-field, non-major PGA TOUR event this year.

Ben Crane closed with a 66, and 2004 U.S. Amateur champion Ryan Moore had a 70 to finish tied for second.

Calcavecchia ended any chance of a playoff by sticking his second shot at No. 18 within 6 feet of the pin and then lagged the putt to within tap-in range.

"I felt like it was a 36-hole day," said Calcavecchia, whose last victory came at the 2001 Phoenix Open. "Thank God we ran out of holes. I saved my best drive and my best iron for the last hole and knew I could two-putt from 6 feet. How embarrassing to lag from 6 feet."

Crane, who won at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee in July and also finished second at the Booz Allen Classic in June, matched the day's best round. He started the tournament with a 74 and wasn't sure he'd be around for the weekend.

"I just wanted to see if I could slip in there and make the cut," Crane said. "Sometimes unexpected things happen."

Moore, who turned pro after the U.S. Open and missed the cut in two of his previous four events, birdied the last hole for his finest finish.

Calcavecchia won despite never mounting a charge through the final two rounds. After opening rounds of 65 and 67, he didn't make a birdie on Saturday in a 2-over 72. But the difficult Shaughnessy Golf Club, made tougher by its shaggy rough, turned out to be his ally, as no player was able to mount a challenge.

"One birdie on the weekend and I win the tournament," Calcavecchia said. "I bet that's never happened. But only seven bogeys all week. A lot of guys probably made seven bogeys today."

Calcavecchia would have made a lot more bogeys had it not been for his short game. Three times he got up-and-down for par on the front nine, including saves from the sand on the par-3 third hole and par-4 sixth.

He missed short birdie putts at Nos. 2, 7, 14 and 15. He went with the driver on the 315-yard, par-4 14th and, with a slight breeze at his back, knocked his tee shot into the left greenside bunker. He blasted out to about 5 feet, but couldn't convert the birdie try. He missed again from about 12 feet on the par-5 15th.

"My putter may be replaced sometime soon, or thrown away," Calcavecchia said.

His last anxious moment on the greens came at the 16th, where he successfully two-putted for par from about 40 feet.

He made bogeys at Nos. 10 and 13, where his tee shots found the ankle-deep rough.

Jesper Parnevik, who along with Craig Barlow started the day one shot back of the lead, shot 73 and finished two back at 3 under. Barlow hit his tee shot into a tree on the par-4 10th and made double bogey on his way to a 77.

Defending champion Vijay Singh started the round within three shots but never threatened, closing with a 2-over 72 for a 1 under total.

Singh got up-and-down four times for par on the front nine. The only two holes he couldn't save par were No. 6, when his tee shot ended up in the adjoining second fairway, and at the ninth, when his tee shot ended up stuck halfway up a tree. He missed a 6-footer for par at the sixth, and had to take a drop at the ninth and finished with another bogey.

"It played a lot tougher, the wind was blowing from different directions," Singh said. "It was more like a U.S. Open course, where it gets dry on the weekend and today the greens got really firm. It's still the best course we play on TOUR."

For the second year in a row a Canadian was in the hunt going into the final round and came up short. Last year, Mike Weir lost to Singh in a playoff, and this time Stephen Ames started the final round three shots off the lead.

Ames got within a shot on the back nine, but a double bogey at the 18th ended his chances, leaving him at 2 over for the round and 1 under for the tournament.
