Gotterup rose from a 12th-place spot at the beginning of the day to finish at 20-under 264 and win on the PGA Tour for the fifth time, including three triumphs this year.
Kohles, who was in the final threesome and tied atop the leaderboard, hit his approach shot on No. 18 in the greenside pond. After a penalty stroke, he took a double bogey.
Max Homa (64 on Sunday) was the runner-up at 19 under.
Gotterup’s bogey-free round allowed him to finish more than an hour prior to the final group. His victory was clinched when Kohles’ chip was off the mark on the final hole.
Kohles then missed his first putt on the last hole and recorded 68 for the round, causing him to tumble into a tie for third place at 18 under, joining third-round co-leaders Lucas Glover (69) and Lee Hodges (69).
