We report on tunneling spectroscopy measurements using a Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) on the spin triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4. We find a negligible density of states close to the Fermi level and a fully opened gap with a value of $\Delta$=0.28 meV, which disappears at T$_c$ = 1.5 K. $\Delta$ is close to the result expected from weak coupling BCS theory ($\Delta_0$=1.76kBT$_c$ = 0.229 meV). Odd parity superconductivity is associated with a fully isotropic gap without nodes over a significant part of the Fermi surface.
