Cameron Hugh Davis is a professional golfer from Australia, born on February 21, 1995. He had a successful amateur career, winning the Australian Amateur and the individual events at the Eisenhower Trophy. Since 2018, he has been regularly playing on the PGA Tour, where he won the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic.
Davis began his professional career at the end of 2016. To qualify for the 2017 PGA Tour Canada, Davis finished fourth in the Q-school. Unfortunately, he had a disappointing season, finished 76th on the tour's rankings, and lost his card.
In November, he won the Emirates Australian Open with one stroke ahead of Jonas Blixt and Matt Jones. His victory marked his first professional win and guaranteed his automatic qualification into the 2018 Open Championship, as the tournament was part of the Open Qualifying Series. Davis also achieved status on the Web.com Tour for 2018 after advancing to the final round of Q School, despite starting at the First Stage. Davis won the 2018 Nashville Golf Open and finished 7th on the Web.com Tour money list, which secured his PGA Tour card.
Although Davis struggled during the 2018-2019 PGA Tour season and finished 160th on the FedEx Cup points list, he rebounded during the 2019–20 season and finished 84th.
He won his first PGA Tour in July 2021 after defeating Troy Merritt and Joaquín Niemann in a playoff at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. He finished the season ranked 37th on the FedEx Cup points list.
In September 2022, Davis was selected to play for the International team in the 2022 Presidents Cup held at Quail Hollow Club. He played all five matches and won two, but unfortunately lost three.
