Cameron Smith clinched his first career major title, sealing victory with a final-round 64 at the 150th British Open. With his win at St. Andrews, Smith becomes the first Austrailian golfer to hoist the Claret Jug since Greg Norman in 1993. Smith sat four strokes off the lead entering play Sunday, but after Rory McIlroy took the lead on the fifth hole, Smith caught fire. He became the only player in the last 20 years to birdie the first five holes of the back nine in the final round of a major. Those five consecutive birdies and a 30 on the back nine would help Smith finish Sunday at 20-under par for the tournament, one stroke ahead of runner-up Cameron Young. #sports #golf #theopen
