DETROIT, July 4, 2021 ~ In a tight horserace to the end, Australia’s Cam Davis pulled out the win Sunday at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, clinching his first ever PGA title.

Victory came after five sudden death holes, with Chile’s Joaquin Niemann dropping after one, and American Troy Merritt persisting through five.


July 4, 2021 ~ Cam Davis tells WJR’s Paul W. Smith about his sudden death win at the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic.

It’s taking some time to sink in” Cam told WJR’s Paul W. Smith.

I was just trying to keep myself calm to be really honest … kept on playing the shots that got me to the playoffs … kept on having puts to win it and just didn’t quite get ‘em in the hole, but I felt like it was just a matter of time.

In addition to the title, Cam will collect a purse of $1,350,000.00 and 500 FedEx Cup points, moving him from 81 to 34 in the season standings.
