Cameron Young

An opening-round 64 gave the PGA Tour rookie an early lead on Day 1 at the Open, and it could have been lower.

Of course, what awaits might not be as arduous as what Young encountered at the Old Course years back. I feel like I've been around, even though it's only been most of the year, I've been around the lead a good bit, and I think we'll just take tomorrow as it comes. And as the past decade or so has shown, golf is no longer in the midst of a youth revolution; the revolution has been won. Young knows a lot of steps remain between now and Sunday night, and they won’t be as easy as Thursday. That was just something that we as a team decided was probably best for my golf."

He lipped out for birdie on the following hole, and a birdie attempt at the 16th from six feet didn’t come close.

He was just inside the top 500 in the world a year ago. He has been around the game long enough to realize not to get too far ahead. Now he is No. 32, thanks to four top-three finishes, including at the PGA Championship, where he finished one shot out of a playoff at Southern Hills. But he three-putted for par on the 14th.
