New York-area golfer on cusp of long-awaited first PGA Tour victory

GREENSBORO, N.C. — 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. The Westchester area native capped off 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. 'Just played some really nice golf there for about an hour,' said Young, whose father David was the club pro at Sleepy Hollow Country Club in Briarcliff Manor for two decades. 'Had some opportunities on the back nine, too, just didn't make as many putts. But kind of cruised along with hitting some average shots through the middle of the round, and nice to finish up the way I did.' Nico Echavarria of Colombia cut the margin to four shots with three birdies in a four-hole stretch on the back nine. A final birdie gave him a 64. 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. 3 Cameron Young, who has a five shot lead, slaps hands with a young fan during the third round of the Wyndham Championship on Aug. 2, 2025. Getty Images 'I'm just going to worry about what I'm doing. As I said, try to hit the best shots I can and try to hole the putts and we'll add it up after 18,' Echavarria said. Young is widely considered the best player to have never 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. 'I finished second a bunch. I've gotten beat a lot. I've played some good golf on Sunday in really all those cases,' Young said. 'So that's all I'm trying to do tomorrow. I'm starting in a nice spot, so I'm just looking to try to beat second place by as many as I can.' 3 Cameron Young hits an iron shot from the sixth tee during the third round of the Wyndham Championship. Getty Images He was at 20-under 190, needing a 67 on Sunday to set the tournament scoring record. What matters to Young is a PGA Tour title, especially now with his ultimate goal of being on the Ryder Cup team at Bethpage Black. He was No. 9 in the Ryder Cup standings in 2023 and was left off the team. 3 Cameron Young lines up a putt on the 18th hole during the third round of the Wyndham Championship. Allison Lawhon-Imagn Images Young had this Ryder Cup circled the day the PGA of America announced it was going to the Long Island public course. A win would only move him to No. 15, but it would certainly put him in the conversation with his power and history at Bethpage. He became the first amateur to win the New York State Open in 2017, setting a course record at the time with a 64 at Bethpage Black. 'That's been a goal this whole year,' Young said. 'I'm trying to just look at that to just take all the small stuff that happens day-to-day as it comes. In the back of my mind trying to picture myself on that team.' Echavarria was the only player within eight shots of Young. Defending champion Aaron Rai (69), Chris Kirk (67) and Mac Meissner (70) were tied for third.
