It was a big morning for golf fans in Westchester as Cameron Young captured his first PGA Tour win at the Wyndham Championship in North Carolina.

Young, who is from Scarborough-on-Hudson, led by six strokes to secure the victory.

He became the 1,000th player to win a recognized PGA Tour event, dating to Willie Park in the 1860 British Open. It must have felt like it took Young 165 years to win as many chances as he has had since his rookie season in 2022.

"I've been waiting for it for a while," Young said, his voice steady as tears welled in his eyes. "I never thought I'd be that emotional about it. But it's the end of my fourth season. I've had my chances and I wasn't going to let it get away from me."
