Cameron Young got the “major” season underway by winning The Players Championship on the Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. Rory McIlroy then kicked off the official major season by winning his second consecutive green jacket at the Masters Tournament.
Next was a surprising turn: Aaron Rai captured the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.
Wyndham Clark followed by adding a second U.S. Open title to his resume with an impressive wire-to-wire victory at Shinnecock Hills.
