Young closes in on first title, up 5 at Wyndham
"Cameron Young ran off four straight birdies on the front nine and stretched his lead to eight shots Saturday before he settled into a series of pars for a 5-under 65, giving him a five-shot lead in the Wyndham Championship as he goes for his first PGA Tour victory."
"Young capped a bogey-free 65 in the storm-delayed second round in the morning. Then he stretched his lead with his four straight birdies, including a 30-footer on No. 4 and a two-putt birdie from 20 feet on the par-5 fifth."
"Young, who had gone 39 straight holes without a bogey at Sedgefield Country Club until missing a 6-foot sliding par putt on the 14th hole, responded with a beautiful lag for a two-putt birdie on the par-5 15th, and a 10-foot birdie on the 17th to put the lead at five."
"Young is widely considered the best player to never have won on a main tour, a runner-up seven times since his rookie season in 2021. That includes a World Golf Championship and more notably the 2022 British Open at St. Andrews."
Cameron Young executed four consecutive birdies on the front nine, increasing his lead to eight shots before finishing with a 5-under 65, giving him a five-shot lead in the Wyndham Championship. He started with a bogey-free score in the storm-delayed second round and showcased impressive putting, including a 30-footer on No. 4. Nico Echavarria reduced the gap with three birdies on the back nine. Young, who previously had a streak of 39 holes without a bogey, is trying to secure his first victory after numerous runner-up finishes since 2021.
