SHOAL CREEK, Ala. — Cameron Peck won the U.S. Junior Amateur title today, 10 and 8 over Evan Beck for the largest margin of victory in four years.

The 17-year-old from Olympia, Wash., won six of the first eight holes and cruised over Beck, also 17, from Virginia Beach, Va.

Peck earned a spot in the 2008 U.S. Amateur competition at Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina starting Aug. 18.

"I don't think it has sunk in yet," Peck said. "This is the biggest win in my life."

Peck birdied the first, fifth, sixth and eighth holes to go 6 up. Beck cut the lead with wins on the 10th and 11th holes, but never got closer.

Beck struggled off the tee at the start of the day, hitting just two of the first seven fairways. Peck hit six of his first seven and one-putted eight times in the morning 18.

"It still kind of stings," said Beck, who was an alternate for the 156-player field until four days before the championship started. "But I made the finals and that's pretty good. I was putting great up until today, but I had only one birdie today and that doesn't do it."
