22 top-tens. 12 top-fives. 7 runner-ups. 0 wins. Cameron Young endured one of the most painful periods in PGA Tour history. Only David Duval had seven runner-ups before sniffing victory. And yesterday, at Sedgefield Country Club, Young’s unseemly record became history.

He shot a 2-under 68 to win the Wyndham Championship by six shots. Young bogeyed the opening hole but responded with five consecutive birdies. In the end, the two bogeys in the final two holes didn’t make any difference other than slimming the victory margin.

And the 22-under 258 total tied the tournament record and made him the 1,000th different winner in Tour history. But the victory was special for a couple more reasons. Sedgefield is Young’s backyard; he is a Wake Forest grad.

On top of that, his PGA Pro father, David Young, who initiated him into golf, was walking outside the ropes. It was a full-circle moment for the father-son duo as these two side-by-side pics, taken two decades apart, will show you.

And it did come after a lot of heartbreaks. Sometimes it was Young's fault—like the 72nd hole bogey at last year’s Valspar. But most times, it was a better player with a better final round who stopped Young from lifting a silverware.

But all that is now in the rearview mirror. Sunday's final round proved Young had learned from the past heartbreaks. His Ryder Cup chances just got a major boost, too. Sometimes persistence pays off perfectly. Duval went on to win 13 times and capture The Open Championship. Young looks to be in good company.

Cameron Young was the talk of the town this week. But he wasn't the only one delivering breakthrough moments. Actually, the weekend served up drama that flew under your radar completely:

Loud: You don’t see Jordan Spieth letting the emotions get the better of him. But sitting at the edge of the playoff bubble is not a pleasant feeling. Quite understandably, a wayward shot triggered a loud reaction from Spieth, for which broadcasters had to apologize on camera, as you can see (and listen) here.

Major debut: Miyu Yamashita fired a 2-under 70 on Sunday at Royal Porthcawl to fend off Charley Hull’s late charge and clinch the AIG Women’s Open for her first LPGA victory. She was drenched in champagne showers, but that couldn’t hide the overflowing emotion in her eyes.

One-and-a-half ace(s): Making a slam-dunk hole-in-one is wild enough. Steph Kyriacou ticked that box on Friday. Then she ticked another box on Sunday — becoming an accomplice in playing mate’s ace. How? Watch here, one of the most unique hole-in-ones in the history of LPGA golf…

Sleek: Not every day you see a shot as straight as this. Joel Dahmen shot an opening-round 61 at Wyndham. And this chip-in eagle from 152 yards was the star of the show!

Goodbye legend: Ian Baker-Finch called time on his broadcasting career after three decades behind the mic. The 1991 Open champion's final CBS sign-off was pure emotion and class. Look how one legend’s goodbye left everyone teary-eyed.

Gary Woodland also delivered a unique moment: an albatross on the par-5 fifth. But unfortunately, there is zero video evidence of that. We do have something that says it’s true, though. Just check out this picture. Frameworthy, huh?

Ever wonder why Cameron Young pauses at the top of his swing? This distinctive move —which you can see here — is a game-changer for golfers who struggle with inconsistent contact and wayward drives. Here’s how you can implement this:

Once you master this, you'll discover cleaner ball-striking and surprising distance gains from better energy transfer. To up your game further and have a proper swing, follow the three tips listed below.

You probably thought you’d seen every putting style imaginable. Wait till you see this anonymous gentleman doing something that’ll leave you puzzled, impressed, and maybe a bit flabbergasted. This golfer stands next to his ball, his putter between his legs, instead of in front of him. Oh, he's also wearing a leg brace and still executing this with perfect precision. 

Watch this unique method that looks ludicrous but works splendidly well.

Now, this side-saddle style, croquet-inspired approach has precedence; even Sam Snead famously used this technique briefly, as this extremely rare footage clearly shows. The method was eventually banned. Regardless, Golf keeps surprising us with rediscovered techniques from the past. Surely, your frustrated golfing friends need to witness this throwback technique making its comeback!
