At the British Open on July 19, Cameron Young shot a final round of 64, the lowest of the day. Despite his strong finish, he finished one stroke behind Ryan Fox, who won with a birdie on the 18th hole. Young's total of 9-under 271 was not enough to secure his first major championship title. He expressed disappointment after waiting to see if his score would hold up against Fox's performance, but he remained positive about his game, noting he could have gone even lower. After the round, he practiced on the putting green but declined to speak to the media about his feelings following the outcome.

- 8:20 PMYahoo Sports — Cameron Young waited and waited some more. Then another British Open slipped from his grasp
"Just a stone’s throw away on the 18th green, Ryan Fox had holed a 12-foot birdie putt to win the British Open. There’d be no playoff for Young. Young had some food, cleared out his locker — “for efficiency’s sake,” he said — and spent some time in the players’ lounge.
