Following a blistering -8 64 in the first round of the 2022 Open Championship, Cameron Young holds a two-shot lead after 18 holes from the Old Course at St Andrews.
Young’s eight-birdie, zero-bogey round benefitted from a favorable tee time and better conditions than those with later tee times had on Thursday, but that shouldn’t sully a tremendous round that has the Wake Forest graduate now the third choice to win the Claret Jug at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Rory McIlory trails Young on the leaderboard at -6 and is alone in second place. But the four-time major winner has won 21 events on the PGA TOUR, whereas Young’s best performance is T2 in three different events this season.
The pre-tournament favorite McIlroy stands at +360 to win, down from his +900 before today’s round. Australia’s Cameron Smith is -5 on the leaderboard, and his price of +700 makes him the second choice to win, with Young is at +800 despite his Thursday night lead. 2022 Masters Champions Scottie Scheffler is -4, but is also at +800 as well.
Here is the complete leaderboard following the opening round of the 2022 Open Championship from St Andrews.
