With the Open Championship fast approaching, former PGA golfer, David Feherty interviews fellow players on which player they believe will rise as the victor. Despite an early prediction of Xander Schauffele as the victor, Feherty makes a bold call that the player who has been performing at his best all week, Scottie Scheffler, will overcome past challenges to claim the coveted Claret Jug.
Cameron Young matched the lowest round in PGA Tour history on Thursday, shooting a 59 in the opening round of the Travelers Championship.
Young’s historic round was fueled by a hot putter and some impressive iron play. He made 10 birdies and an eagle on the par-5 13th hole.
Young’s round was made all the more impressive by the fact that he was using a new set of clubs. He switched to TaylorMade’s P·7TW irons and MG3 wedges this week, and they clearly agreed with him.
“I’m really excited about these new clubs,” Young said. “They’re giving me a lot of confidence, and I’m hitting the ball really well.”
Young’s 59 is the first on the PGA Tour since Justin Thomas shot the same score at the 2020 Sentry Tournament of Champions. It’s also the first 59 in Travelers Championship history.
