The 48-year-old Armour, a two-time winner on the PGA TOUR, had a 16-under 272 total in the event that features both male and female players.

Black shot a 68, and Mediate had a 67.

"I just played good all week and never had a three-putt," said Armour, whose last tournament win was the 2003 Texas Open. "I told myself this morning that I had to shoot 70 to win. I shot 70."

Black won the tournament in 1995.

"I played a little nervous on the back nine," Black said. "I've only played five or six rounds in the last few years and I wasn't able to focus on a couple of holes like I should have."
