Saltus finished with a 17-under 271 total to top third-round leader Adam Groom (71) of Australia by three strokes. Groom was followed by Prom Meesawat (70) and Thaworn Wiratchant (70) of Thailand. "This is awesome. I would like to dedicate this win to the Grateful Dead, as they have inspired me all the way," said Saltus, who has attended 153 concerts.

I've got a buddy that made a killing one summer following the Grateful Dead around and selling grilled cheese sandwiches to the "heads". I wonder if he ever sold one to this guy?

It was capitalism at its best, and worst I guess. He'd drive from town to town with a couple of small grills and a few coolers. Before the next venue he'd stop and load up on the cheapest loaves of bread, processed and pre-sliced american cheese, and fake butter that he could find. Some ice for the coolers and charcoal and lighter fluid for the grills and that was the entire set up. Sold these things by the thousands for I think 3 bucks a pop. His cost per sandwhich was somewhere around 20 cents each. That didn't include travelling expenses but he still made out like a bandit.
