- Cameron Smith put together one of the great rounds in major history to become Champion Golfer of the Year at The 150th Open.
The Australian started the final day four strokes back from Rory McIlroy and Viktor Hovland but shot an incredible 64, which featured five birdies in a row at the beginning of the back nine and another on 18, to overhaul McIlroy and fend off Cameron Young by a stroke.
His finishing score of 20-under-par matched Henrik Stenson’s winning number from Royal Troon six years ago and is the joint-best score to par in Open history, and the lowest at St Andrews.
Smith is also the first Australian to become Champion Golfer since Greg Norman in 1993 and in the process shot the lowest fourth round by a champion in St Andrews history, surpassing Zach Johnson’s 66 in 2015.
Smith was three shots back from McIlroy at the beginning of the back nine but he switched his putter on when it mattered most, holing putts from five, 16, 11, 18 and five feet to swing the Championship his way.

-6 through the last 9 holes , of The Open, at St Andrew’s, to win your first major. That’s bloody incredible. Fantastic stuff, Cam!
could.nt say it better myself, well dome Cam, youve done yourself and Australia proud.
Complete madness. Kept thinking no way this can last. Stoked for him it did.
Not even Tiger ever really put together a streak like that. And to come from behind on top of it. Just remarkable.
Wantima Golf course had a huge sign of Cam years ago by the roadside so everyone that drove past knew about this kid. I took notice and have followed him ever since. Great to see him where he is now and good on Wantima Golf Club for playing a part in his career. Hopefully he can take the claret jug there and show it off one day as thanks to those who encouraged him before the golf world knew who he was 👍
but did he rebound his ball off the cafe and hit the green on the 18th like rick shiels? seriously though some huge golf shots from smith
Instant legend - winning his first major at the 150th Open. Aussie hero!
Didn't he win the PGA championship in March?
@@JB-ti7bl Justin Thomas won the pga
@@JB-ti7bl he won the players
Nothing instant about it.
man he can roll it
Super happy. American here throwing some love to my Australian brothers and sisters. You produced a class act in Cam Smith.
Thnx mate we know we have someone special 💪👏🇦🇺
Always loved Adam Scott and Aaron Baddeley because they are class people. Enter this guy in that group as well. American showing love for our Aussie friends.
Thank you, we love him.
CAM SMITH YOU ARE A CHAMPION! Much love
The way Smith took the air out of the whole Rory crowd was amazing. The announcers were so hurt they couldn't hide their pain 🤣
Good. Never liked him!
@@danielgermano3505 I will second that, i lost what little respect i had for him when he wouldnt wear a team hat @ the Olympics, what a PUTZ , said his head was to small & they didnt have one small enuff BS he didnt wear it because Adidas was supplying the clothing, i mean really the guy had 2 yrs & over $100M to get a hat made to fit wtf lol PUTZ
I was 100% pulling for Rory, but I couldn’t be happier for Cameron. That was an absolute historic performance on the back 9. Totally deserving champion.
@@danielgermano3505 i like Rory he is a Hero
@@circemuller1933 Hero? Hero of what?!?! Of whome????
Amazing how they skipped over the majority of Cam's string of birdies. The most important stretch of the tournament
someone decided you can only show one stroke per player per hole, except on the 18th or by Jordan Spieth
They showed 4 strokes by Cam in that 5 hole stretch but 3 strokes by Jordan Spieth on the 17th hole
I agree, the highlights package was below par with a few bogies !!
They want you to pay for it
If tiger was dead last they would oh showed all his shots
An absolutely perfect day. Went alone. First ever golf event of any kind and it was 150th at St. Andrews and my favourite golfer triumphed with a historic charge. I was with him from the 1st right up to the 18th Green charge, to see him parade his win. I'll never forget today, cheers! 🤝
I think you got your money's worth. With his short game it won't be his last major.
@@gustaaf1892 the skill/mindset.. it would be brave to be bet on him not getting another major
Hey! Did you know God is three in one!? The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit! Bless him!
Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead, and gives salvation to everyone who has faith in him! True faith in Jesus will have you bear good fruit and *drastically* change for the better!
Your worries (yes, anxiety), depression, suicidal thoughts, EVERYTHING will melt away and be NO MORE when you lean on God and put your trust in him!! When I have physical pain, I literally pray and the Lord quells it, that I am healed!!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! People are bothered by his name. The world hates the truth and wants to continue living sinfully! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous.
@@Call_Upon_YAH did Jesus play fullback for Jerusalem 🤔😋
After hearing his victory presser, nothing but respect for Cam. His humility, dry sense of humour and relatability make him easy to cheer for. Deserves to be Champion Golfer of the Year!
Repent to Jesus Christ
“the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.”

One of the greatest last rounds I have seen in a long time. Congrats from America.
Cam Smith you just keep grinding it out. You are a true never give up the ship man. Watched how you kept up a dogged fight to win this years Masters with a close 2nd.. Congratulations winning the Open on its 150th anniversary!. History made.... You certainly earned this victory.
Yesterday he tried to blow the event on that one hole hacking it all over the place and playing like an idiot.
@Theophilus Eugene Connor On 12 at Augusta if he used his head he would have aimed middle of the green and he wouldn't have dumped the ball in the water. Today he played smart. Hitting iron on 16 than Driver on 18.
@Theophilus Eugene Connor My career is over but I had over 60 wins.
@@HynoDesignsvIII So what buddy, Not many Golfers can pick themselves up after a round like that, but Cameron did and is testimony to his never say die attitude. I smell a salty Rory Fan, Rory would be truly embarrassed of you. Cameron Smith was simply unflinching today, he holed everything.
@@HynoDesignsvIII Do you play golf? I'd like to know. Please tell me you don't, you obviously don't understand anything about the Game and the pressure involved at that higher level and just how easy it is to make a mistake. Why are you being a utter D%^k about the whole thing.
Let it go? The Masters happend 3 months ago. If the Masters loss truly affected Cameron mind he wouldn't have lifted the Claret Jug.
I went to bed after the 4th hole of Smith's round because I was struggling to stay awake and thought Mcilroy would be next to impossible to catch with the way the course was playing. Woke up this morning straight to my trusted sports news site to be met with a mixture of joy and disbelief. Well done Smith you are on your way to becoming a legend of Australian golf!
Legend already
Happy you got good sleep Ben
Cam Smith, the story of Sunday with a legendary round for the ages ... and a great Australian to boot!
Thoroughly deserved.
TPC Champion, in the mix at The Masters & now British Open Champion.
British Open what's that ?
No such tournament.
@@tam1381 up until a few years ago it was called The British Open, Einstein.
Imagine if Cam didn’t find the water on 12 at Augusta on Sunday. He could’ve Won 2 Majors this year.
He’s become one of my favorite golfers. Dude never quits!
@@davidr7872 In Aus everyone I know has always refered to it as The Open Championship, you may be American and Americans have always called it the British Open. I have never heard the winner being called the British Open Champion at the presentation and that's watching it over a 50 year span. Einstein is right.
@@nexus3180 I get what you mean but there’s still heaps of aussies calling it a British open, or maybe only the younger generations
My man!!! Quiet professional. My favorite player for sure. Go Cam! Hometown boy
Cam Smith what a legend! One of the rounds of the year to win it
If he had had a solid 3rd round he would have won by miles. Some of the best putting chipping and course management ive ever watched. Well deserved win Cammo !!!!!!!!!
He putted unbelievable. By far the best putter in the game today.
@@Jpgundarun yep
Magical...
Par with Brad Faxon
So well deserved. He's been there abouts for a while now. Extremely hard tournament to win.
Congrats Cameron! You deserve this, well played! A round that will be talked about for a long time to come. Your name will be etched on much more than just the Claret Jug. A pleasure to watch.
Great moment for Aussie golf, well done Cam . 🇦🇺 👏
Best news i heard all day. ,,after missing our trip to Perth Australia an finding out our daughter was admitted to hospital this morning, feeling a lot better today congrats CAM.
Hope all is well, and yes what a great bloody day indeed mate!
What a final round!!! Brilliant golf from truly brilliant players.
CAM SMITH!!! Congratulations from New Zealand, I’m a huge fan 👍
Stayed up and watched every round in full which meant 4 days of 3.30am finishes, all worth it. That par save on 17 might be the most clutch 2 putt of his career.
Great final day and exciting finish. Great leader board too for a final day showdown.
Very happy for cam smith. Always been up there in many tournaments and he is the champion golfer of the year 2022.
Shooting 8 under Par on the final day is an incredible performance, well done Mr Ozzy Mullet👍
Fantastic play by Cam Smith. Less talking and more winning (note: Rory) 150th Open winner from Aussie Land congratulations
Hahahahahaha, Rory should be sitting next to Justin Leonard as a PGA commentator at Augusta next year....CAM!!!!!!!!!
cameron young at -19?! Incredible for an open rookie, hyped to see more of him
He was very very impressive! Showed a lot of creativity to match his power
That eagle at the last hole showed serious grit as well from Cam Young, put the pressure on Cam Smith to make a birdie to avoid a playoff
If Young starts well early next season then I'll be looking at betting on him to win The Masters or one of the other majors next year.
A putting exhibition, for sure! The man is a savage under pressure, and I don’t think this will be his last major that he will win.
He's got to be the best in the world at the moment with the putter or wedge in hand around the greens. Absolutely unreal.
Congratulations to Cameron Smith. You’ve done Australia 🇦🇺 proud as well as other players all within cooee. I thought Adam Scott might throw his hat into ring at the turn.
Congratulations Cameron Smith. I got up to watch you for all 4 rounds, truly sensational golf.
I couldn't believe my 👀 at 2am this morning Australian time. 5 birdies in a row, then the clutch par putt on the famous Road hole. Then to to it off knock to the fringe on 18 and get down in 2 for a birdie for round of 64 -20. This is a win for the Ages, the Golf was phenomenal all week.
The course was just sparkling in all its glory.
You join the Australians and all legendary Golfers whom have won the most prestigious Major in Golf.
Well Done Cameron Smith 🏌♂️⛳🏆🥇🇦🇺
Perhaps the gutsiest back nine in a major I've ever seen. Congratulations Cam!
Nice to see Cam win the Open particularly with his final round 64 to beat Rory and everyone else.
The best putting show I have seen in years. You will win more Cam Smith !!!
Cam Smith about to test the limits of number of beers in the jug
Congrats
Congratulations, Cameron Smith…!
👍👏👏👏👏👏✌️
Good stuff, Cam Smith looks like such a regular guy. Superb short game. Nerves of steel!
Congratulations Cameron Smith on your stupendous Golf Open win on 17/7/2022, a day/week you will always remember and will be etched on you heart. It was such a great pleasure to watch you thoughtfully, calmly and scrupulously put together a 72-hole golf match play, from start to finish and win with that record breaking -20 score!!! Absolutely AWESOME and thank you!! ENJOY 😁👌💥👏.
Wow, what a player. What an Aussie!
Aussie champ and humble bloke!
COLD BLOOD. REAL CHAMPION. BRAVO
Dude deserved that win with his back nine play
Still remember following Cam smith at the Selangor Masters sometime in 2014/15. Grinding his way to the top. What a player
You showed good judgement in 2014/15!
Tremendous effort... tremendous year with the playoffs ahead. Golf is in good hands no matter what the controversy. Great job Cam!
Soooooooo deserved. Sooo so deserved. From a Rory fan.
Champion haircut of the year!! That was some amazing golf by Mr Smith. What a great Champion. He just ripped that jug away from the rest of the field.
The best back 9 the Old Course has ever seen
To bounce back after Saturdays round to win it in this fashion is legendary.
Congrats Cam Smith from Sweden 🏌️♂️⛳️👌🏻
I rooted for Rory but damn do Cameron deserves this win. Phenomenal stuff!! His putter was scorching hot!
Crazy that Rory with a 4 shot lead and no bogeys lost by 2 shots. He didn’t choke but cam won this tournament
Dude he choked. No wind on a short easy course…. He made par from the fairway of a short par 5 and he’s the longest guy out there aside from Bryson. Both can be true though. Can won it no doubt. But he had to shoot -6 on the back nine to win by 1. And Rory had play like a muppet to drop to third.
McIlroy missed the 5-footer on 3. Then he failed to birdie either 9, 12, or 14. If he birdies two of those four holes they we've got a totally different situation down the stretch. But still, if you had told me at the start of the day that he would shoot 70, and that would beat Hovland, then I would have said he was extremely likely to win the tournament.
@@dbo4506 44 Players shot -3 or better, Rory -2 so didn't play well and I am glad he loss.
Great job Cam Smith...never...ever give up. Couldn't be happier for you.
From a Yank.
Phenomenal round, congrats Cam Smith
Glad we got to see every one of DJ’s putts he made instead of the birdie streak of Smith’s
Hahahahaha. I reckon.
what a back 9 from Smith
Well done Cam.....superb tournament. After the third round you had, you're final round back nine was truly awesome!
He played attacking Golf from the beginning and was rock solid till the end. One of the all time great Major performances.
I pulled hard for him at Augusta, i'm glad to see the win. It's the mullet!
that is what is worth watching. performance under pressure. this guy. what a killer.
A back 9 for the ages for a one shot win. Phenomenal. 🇦🇺
What a brilliant display of golf from Smith, well done and a pleasure to watch.
What a round by cam smith, down to earth Aussie wins the claret jug 👍👍⛳️⛳️🏌️♀️🏌️♀️
can't believe the shots these guys were making and the putting was off the planet. 20 under at the british open. who would have thought. great golf.
Humble, knock about, mullet headed all round good Aussie bloke ! Legend!!
What an absolute legend !! The nicest guy, humble, honest, down to earth !! Well done mate, well done !!
Cam clutched up for Australia at the end. What a player 🇦🇺
Just a scintillating last round and what about that back nine!!!! Fabulous to watch and well deserved win. Congrats from England
Rory winning would've been a pretty neat historical event to say the least. I was actually pulling for C Smith the entire tournament. Super cool watch him win. Talk about the absolutely most perfect example of "Putting for dough"! Rory just couldn't get a put to drop. And THANKFULLY no one from the blood money tour won.
You do know C Smith hasn't ruled out joining that said blood money tour. That's why I wanted Rory to win.
Bloody epic, what a legend
A back nine 30 on Sunday at St Andrews, to win the open by 1 shot. That was the stuff of legends.
Dang, Cameron Smith huh. Good for him, a well deserved grand champion!
Cam is an absolute gun!
Cam Smiths putting 👌🏽
They were dogging him on Saturday, yet today he kicked everyone ass.
Agreed, gave him a hard time for choosing certain shots yesterday and I bet not one gave him props today! Play your game not the 1980s like the commentators keep talking about.
It was a horrendous decision that luckily led to a double bogey... Cams putting was unreal though.
What a card to display! On the Final nine in a major, holy!
Well done Cam I knew you would make the big time one day. Ur an Aussie legend now👍
Just absolutely lit up this course on the back 9. Kids a stud
He chose the mullet over his sponsored hat in the cup ceremony picture and THATS WHY WE FUCKING LOVE HIM
Went out and chopped my hair into a mullet immediately after that win. One of the best final rounds I’ve ever seen. Class
The mullet came into its own there… a six sense with the wind direction . But great performance Cam Smith, proud of ya mate.
Good on Cam!!! Seems like a genuine dude!!
Instant Aussie legend. You bloody beauty 👍👍👍
Came from down under and brought the thunder.... Congrats...
Cam Smith has been accumulating several records along the way and multiple course low scoring records. Insane!
Has the best game for the majors short game and putting is next level and his demeanour is perfect. Congrats young man may it be the first of many.
A great tournament Smithy. Last 9 - wow! And what a field ... such quality, superb golfing.
👏👏👏 Cameron Smith brilliant stuff.
The first of many 😁
Congratulations Ca.Smith 🇭🇲💪
Fantastic win . Well done.👏
Congratulations to Smith, absolutely deserving win. But I must say, to all the players this was some of the finest golf I have had the pleasure of watching.
Always so cool under pressure!! Love this guy 🥰
I was rooting for Rory but Cam did an incredible job of taking it away from him. I've been saying that Rory will never win another major as long as he has his buddy caddying for him. His caddy is absolutely NO HELP to him. He should've contracted 'Bones' when Phil M. released him. Congrats to Cam!
I bet Cam had Billy Moore’s Queenslander chant on high rotation in his head all week.😀
Never heard anyone say a bad word about Cam Smith. He has no ego and let's his golf do the talking. Win or loose he keeps that stone cold temperament. Congrats Cam what a final round.
I watched it all drinking a few single malts,{WHAT AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE] well done Cam
What a fantastic win by Cameron Smith !! What a way to prove all the doubters wrong by winning the 150th Open at St Andews the home of golf ⛳ Congratulations Cam you made Australia proud and you thoroughly deserved that claret jug, hats off to you mate 👏
My favorite golfer taking it home again. :) congrats!
CAM SMITH LEGEND!!!
Managed to go all day without spoilers. The Official Open RUclips Channel: "btw Cameron Smith won lol"
It's a first world problem that seriously sucks for sports fans. Been there quite a few times 😔 😠
When Cameron Smith pulled out his driver for the 18th tee he made a statement, He was in it to win it. That decision proved to be spot on giving him a shot at birdieing the final hole for the win. If Smith hadn't made that call It might have been Young celebrating with the Claret Jug who had just recorded his Eagle on that final hole getting him to -19 under. Smith, you played that final round with precision proving it takes 4 rounds to win a Championship, you definitely saved the best for last. Congrats...
Absolutely stellar final round
