The American has become one of the most consistent performers on the PGA Tour since breaking through, but who is Cameron Young’s caddie?

Despite not becoming a prolific winner on the established circuit, Cameron Young has proven his class on several occasions and been part of a winning Presidents Cup team.

Born in 1997, the New Yorker won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour before being named the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year for the 2021-22 season.

He has also finished inside the top-ten in three of the four major championships but hopes 2024 will be an even more successful year.

That is because Cameron Young’s caddie is Wayne de Haas, a new addition to the team ahead of his third full season on the PGA Tour.

Cameron Young’s caddie

After graduating from Wake Forest University, Young had Scott McKean on the bag.

The pair had worked together during Young’s time at college, and he quickly began to impress, logging multiple top finishes that would see him into the world’s top 50.

However, ahead of the 2022 Open Championship at St Andrews, Young turned to Chad Reynolds – a relatively inexperienced caddie.

That takes nothing away from his qualities, though, and clearly, he was trusted, as Reynolds previously worked with Vijay Singh, Keegan Bradley and Cameron Champ.

The second change on the bag of Cameron Young came at the WGC-Dell Technologies Matchplay in 2023 Young, when employed Paul Tesori.

They finished second that week, a sign of things to come, as Young failed to get over the line on the PGA Tour.

• Who is Ian Poulter’s caddie?

The partnership came about after Tesori split with Webb Simpson following 12 years of work, and the caddie merry-go-round has now moved into 2024.

LIV golfer ian Poulter snatched Brendan Todd’s looper David Clark, prompting Todd to begin work with Tesori.

Without a caddie ahead of the season opener at The Sentry, Young turned to de Haas in Hawaii.

Before being a caddie, De Haas was a professional golfer and played mostly on the Minor League and DP World Tour after turning pro in 1997.

In the eight events he played on the European Tour, he made just one cut. His last start was the 2008 Joburg Open, where he failed to make the weekend.

While the South African has limited experience of caddying, he did work with fellow countryman Ernie Els at the 2022 U.S. Senior Open Championship.
