Starting the final round one shot off the pace, Patrick Christovich shot a 68 to win his fourth straight title at the Louisiana Mid- Amateur Championship.

Christovich, who held consideration for one of the two mid-amateur positions on the 2013 U.S. Walker Cup squad, only boosted his chances of remaining in the conversation with the impressive victory.

At The Bluffs Golf Resort in St. Francis, Louis., Christovich finished at 3-under and one shot up on Colin Richwine and Daniel Burger.

After taking the lead early in the final round, Christovich fell victim to a bogey on the par-4 11th. He showed the resolve that has made him into one of the country's top mid- amateurs, though, recording birdies on the next two holes to put it out of reach.

Earlier this year, Christovich tied for sixth at the Birmingham National Invitational after placing second at the 2012 Coleman Invitational.
