Moore defeated Lachlan Vickery 6-2, 6-2 at Wodonga Tennis Centre in 75 minutes.
The Tweed Heads-based tennis coach had previously won the Goulburn Valley AMT (Australian Money Tournament) in Shepparton and Albury's Margaret Court Cup.
He also won all three events last year.
"It's a great effort by Brendon, to win three events in a row, two years running, is absolutely superb," tournament director Doug Smith said.
Meanwhile, Taya Powell posted a thrilling win over Sahra Dennehy in the open women's final.
But Powell had to survive a pulsating super tiebreak in the third and final set to win, 6-4, 4-6, 13-11.
The match took 117 minutes.
"It was a really tough match and Taya just managed to sneak home," Smith offered.
Powell finished runner-up to Laquisa Khan in the Margaret Court Cup's open women's singles.
The Vic titles attracted 200 players, with the bulk in the junior categories, from under 10s to under 16s.
