Raymond Floyd, with a seven-under-par 65 over the final 18 holes, finished at 19-under 197 for three rounds to run away with the season-ending Senior Tour Championships Sunday at the Dorado Beach Resort in Puerto Rico.

Finishing tied for second, five strokes back, were George Archer and Dale Douglass.

Floyd’s 19 under tied a senior record shared by Miller Barber, Bruce Crampton, Don January, Jack Nicklaus and Jimmy Powell.

Floyd collected $150,000 from the total purse of $1 million and closed his rookie season on the over-50 circuit with $417,991 in only seven starts.
