Ted Brown of Glen Allen, Va., made his third trip to the Charlie’s Maine Open one to remember, carding a 3-under par 67 in the final round to win Maine’s premier professional event by one stroke at Augusta Country Club on Tuesday.

Tied at the top of the leaderboard after the opening round, Brown birdied the 16th hole to claim a one-stroke lead over Jon McLain and Nicholas Pandelena. Brown escaped trouble on the difficult 18th for a par to hold on for the victory.

Brown’s two-day total was 7-under, 133, while McLain and Pandelena had matching rounds of 68-66 to finish at 6- under 134. Finishing at 135 were Evan Harmeling, Spencer Mellon and Colin Brennan.

Shawn Warren of Cape Elizabeth was the low Maine professional with a 138.

Jack Wyman of South Freeport finished as the top amateur for the second time in his career. Wyman carded back-to-back rounds of 2- under 68 to place in a tie for seventh overall. The finish earned Wyman enough points to qualify for the 2016 U.S. Golf Association State Team Championship, joining fellow Maine golfers Ricky Jones and Andrew Slattery for the biennial event in Alabama in September.

Victor Linkovich of Lisbon shot a solid round of 77 on Tuesday to finish at 161 for the tournament, while Lisbon Falls native Andy Fournier posted a second-round 83 to close at 164.
