Cameron Smith stormed back with six birdies over the last nine holes on Sunday to win his first major championship in style at the 150th Open Championship at the historic Home of Golf, St. Andrews.
Smith and his beautiful mullet ended up winning by a stroke after Cam Young eagled the 18th hole. Rory McIlroy finished in a disappointing third place after not being able to hit any key putts in his final round.
It’s been quite a year for Smith. He won the Players Championship in March and now has his first major championship.
Moments after his win he was asked how he was going to celebrate. His answer was perfect:
