SANDESTIN, Fla., June 3 (UPI) -- Loren Roberts shot a final round 6-under-par 65 Sunday to win the Champions Tour's Boeing Championship by three shots over Eduardo Romero at Sandestin, Fla.
Roberts had a 54-hole total of 16-under 197, as he captured his first title of the season and his first since last year's Senior British Open.
"It feels good to win," said Roberts, who claimed a winner's check of $247,500. "It's been almost a year since I've won. You have to work the ball around the (Sandestin Golf and Beach Course) and that's how I play."
Roberts, who missed out on the Charles Schwab Cup points title last season, bagged his sixth victory on the Champions Tour.
Romero (69) ended at 13-under 200 as the runner-up.
Bob Gilder (65) and Tom Purtzer (71) tied for third at 12-under 201, while overnight leader and reigning Champions Tour Player of the Year Jay Haas (73) tied for fifth with Dana Quigley (66) at 11-under 202.
