YOUNG AT LAST - August 4th, 2025

On August 4th, 2025, Cameron Young finally broke through for his first PGA Tour win at the Wyndham Championship, while the FedEx Cup bubble burst in dramatic fashion for the unlucky few.

WYNDHAM CHAMPIONSHIP: A WIN FOR THE AGES

• After seven runner-up finishes, Cameron Young captured his elusive first PGA Tour victory in dominant fashion. He overcame an opening bogey with five straight birdies to tie the tournament record and become the 1000th winner in Tour history.
• "Where do I go? I've never done this before." - Cameron Young to his caddie after the win.
• The win was a long time coming for the 2022 Rookie of the Year, who admitted, "I've been waiting for it for a while."

THE BUBBLE BURSTS

• The drama for the final playoff spots was gut-wrenching, epitomized by Davis Thompson. He birdied 15 from 47 feet only to three-putt the final green, missing a six-footer that cost him his season, finishing 71st.
• "Oh boy, six feet for everything." - Jim Nantz on the broadcast.
• While Thompson suffered the ultimate heartbreak, Chris Kirk authored a clutch T5 finish to move from 74th to 61st, safely securing his spot in the playoffs.

A FAREWELL TO FINCHY

• The golf world said a heartfelt goodbye to legendary CBS broadcaster Ian Baker-Finch as he signed off for the final time. His colleagues, including Jim Nantz and Dottie Pepper, delivered emotional tributes to the beloved commentator.
• "Whatever you think of Ian Baker Finch, he's ten times better." - Jim Nantz.
• Finchy's final words to the audience: "I'll miss being in your homes every weekend."
