Cameron Young Wins Players Championship as Ludvig Åberg's Three-Shot Lead Dramatically Collapses

Cameron Young has waited a long time for a moment like this.

The 27-year-old was a runner-up seven times on the PGA Tour before finally breaking through with his first win at the Wyndham Championship in August 2025. On Sunday at TPC Sawgrass, he made sure there would be no eighth bridesmaid finish — winning the Players Championship in one of the most dramatic final rounds in recent memory.

Young carded a 4-under 68 to finish 13 under par, one stroke better than England's Matt Fitzpatrick and two clear of Xander Schauffele.
