Cameron Davis wins US PGA Tour’s Rocket Mortgage Classic
Like Cameron Smith, Jason Day, Marc Leishman, and Adam Scott, Davis is now a winner on the US PGA Tour, too. He completed his right of passage on Monday (AEST) by winning the Rocket Mortgage Classic in a five-hole playoff over Troy Merritt and Joaquin Niemann, pocketing a cool A$1.8 million in the process. That Davis clinched the title in Detroit-his 71st event on the US PGA Tour-is not as surprising as to how he did it. Having only ever finished inside the top-10 twice before the 2021 season, Davis had ice running through his veins during a remarkable Sunday back-nine. He holed out from a greenside bunker for eagle on 17 on his way to carding a five-under back-nine that saw him sneak through the back door into a three-way playoff. His ranking has rocketed up from 134th to 67th in the world. He also leaps from 81st to 34th spot in the PGA standings, putting him in strong contention to reach the 30-man field for the season-ending Tour Championship on September 5 in East Lake Golf Club in Georgia. Simply reaching the top 30 would earn Davis a cool half-a-million Australian dollars.
