Parker McLachlin shot a 2-over 74 Sunday and still cruised to his first PGA Tour victory by seven strokes at the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open.

McLachlin, in his second season on the PGA Tour, recovered from trouble time after time to card 14 pars, three bogeys and a birdie on the 18th to finish the tourney at 18-under 270.

"It feels like it has been a lifetime coming. It has been a dream of mine since I was about 12," said McLachlin, 29, who grew up in Hawaii and played at UCLA. "This is a huge stepping stone for me."

The 29-year-old tied the course record with a 10-under 62 on Friday and set a 54-hole record at 20-under at the 7,472-yard Montreux Golf & Country Club near Lake Tahoe. But he had to scramble his way to the $540,000 winner's check after hitting only four greens in regulation for the day. Brian Davis and John Rollins tied for second at 11-under 277.
