Cameron Young Held The Lead Without Hitting a Shot, But Fox Took The British Open

Fox took the British Open at Royal Birkdale, closing with a 2-under 68 after a day of wild swings.

The Wild Ride From Young

Cameron Young kicked things off with an astonishing 6-under 64. He finished so early that he sat atop the leaderboard for two full hours without hitting another shot while the actual leaders were still out there on the front nine. Talk about an unexpected twist!

Fox Delivered When It Counted

But Fox, the 39-year-old son of an All Blacks rugby player, never lost hope. Even with a pair of bogeys on the back nine, he delivered the goods when it counted. He closed strong with that 2-under 68, thrusting both powerful arms into the air. Pure championship stuff.
