Richard S. Johnson of Sweden has won the U. S. Bank Championship by a stroke for his first PGA Tour victory.

He birdied three of his last four holes Sunday for a 6-under-par 64. He finished at 16-under 264 and became the seventh first-time winner on the tour this year.

Ken Duke closed with a 65 and was the runner-up at Brown Deer Park Golf Course.

Kenny Perry shot a 64 and was four strokes off the lead. He had been criticized for skipping the British Open to play this event after winning three of his last five tournaments, including last week's John Deere Classic.
