What they’re saying

“She works incredibly hard on all of our behalf. I mean, it's constant. They travel all the time, so she holds up that part of it at home, and does it all on my behalf, so I can go do my job and chase my dreams.”

— Cameron Young, PGA Tour Golfer

“It's because of the PGA that he has had the job he had for the last many years. Without that at Sleepy Hollow, I don't start playing at four years old or earlier. I don't have the access that I did growing up. I started playing in PGA junior events when I was nine, eight, something like that.”

— Cameron Young, PGA Tour Golfer

“Every once in a while, we'll do a little work if he needs to. And mostly it's him tinkering, finding something that he thinks works, just making sure it makes sense, and looks OK, and makes sense from a mechanics standpoint.”

— David Young, Cameron Young's Father
