ENDICOTT, N.Y., July 6 (UPI) -- Eduardo Romero shot a 3-under-par 69 to win the Dick's Sporting Goods Open in Endicott, N.Y. Sunday, his second title on the Champions Tour.

Romero finished at 18-under 199 at the En-Joie Golf Club.

Gary Koch (65) and Fulton Allem (69) shared second place at 16-under 201, and Joey Sindelar (71) placed fourth, another two strokes back.
