A Dad's Hitting Spell Leads Young Golfer to Slamwin Glory!

PONTE VEDRA BEACH — Cameron Young did not know where to turn. Young was on the 18th green at TPC Sawgrass, clutching the gold trophy of the golfer in the iconic follow-through pose that goes to the winner of The Players Championship when his boys, Henry and John, escaped the clutches of their mom, Kelsey, and dashed toward daddy. Then he was eyeing Kelsey, who was sitting just off the green with the couple's daughter, Vivienne, as he started talking about the woman who holds everything together while he's traveling the country and the world to work on a game that has been trending up for about seven months.

Soon after, he was pointing at the flagpole as the traditional raising of the flag from the champion's native land was taking place. "I've dreamed of having that moment with them for a long time," the Palm Beach Gardens resident said. "To get to see them after I did my interviews and got to actually give my boys a hug, see my wife, see my little girl … that's something I'll remember for a long time.

" The moment was made possible by two tee shots Young never will forget. The first was on the iconic No. 17 with the island green.

A hole that has seen many golfers' hopes sink with their tee shots. But Young, who stepped up to the penultimate hole one shot behind Matthew Fitzpatrick, stuck his tee shot to 10 feet. He pulled even by making the birdie putt.
