New York’s Cameron Young and New Jersey’s Chris Gotterup team up for 2 US wins at Presidents Cup

In Medinah, Illinois, Cameron Young and Chris Gotterup combined for two victories for the United States at the Presidents Cup. The two golfers, both hailing from New York and New Jersey respectively, have similar playing styles and backgrounds. Young, 29, is from Scarborough, New York, and plays for Wake Forest, while Gotterup, 27, was raised in New Jersey and attended Rutgers and Oklahoma.

Despite losing their first two matches, Young and Gotterup helped the U.S. trim their deficit to three points going into Sunday's singles matches. Young noted that they play similar styles, and when one player struggles, the other steps up. Gotterup added that their connection is strengthened by their shared Northeast background and love for the game. Young is ranked No. 3 in the world, while Gotterup is ranked No. 7.
