Cameron Young finally got his first PGA TOUR victory Sunday, after seven heartbreaking runner-up finishes in his first 93 starts. In the 94th, the 28-year-old made it look easy. Taking a five-stroke lead into the final round at Sedgefield Country Club, he had five straight birdies early to build the gap to nine and coasted home to a 2-under 68 to win the Wyndham Championship by six shots. The Wake Forest alum became the 1,000th player to win on the PGA TOUR, dating back to Willie Park Jr. in the 1860 Open Championship.

“It feels like a long time coming,” Young said after the victory. “I felt like for the first year and a half that I was out here, I had a chance to win every third week, it felt like. They've been a bit more few and far between, so to have a chance like this today, I was not going to let it get away from me, and I'm thankful that I didn't.”

The win at Wyndham vaults Young to 16th in the FedExCup standings as he heads into the first of three FedExCup Playoffs events. It also plants Young’s name firmly in the mind of U.S. Ryder Cup Captain Keegan Bradley, who leads his team against the Europeans this fall at Bethpage Black, a place with fond memories for Young, where in 2017 he became the first amateur to win the New York State Open.

Cameron Young ran away with the title at the Wyndham Championship, where he prevailed by six strokes over Mac Meissner and equaled the tournament’s scoring record of 22-under 258. He led by three shots at the midpoint and by five after three rounds, so it quite literally was a walk in the park on Sunday at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. Young earned 500 FedExCup points and $1,476,000 in prize money. See how others fared and more from Golfbet insider Rob Bolton here.
