Cameron Young Makes Big Putts to Take Early Lead at Cadillac Championship in Tour's Doral Return
- On Thursday, Cameron Young shot a bogey-free, eight-under 64 to take a one-shot lead at the Cadillac Championship, marking the PGA Tour's return to Trump National Doral for the first time in 10 years.
- The $20 million signature event returns to the 'Blue Monster' course after a decade-long hiatus, having hosted LIV Golf events from 2022 through 2025 before the PGA Tour stopped using the facility when President Donald Trump purchased it.
- Young holds a one-shot advantage over Jordan Spieth and American Alex Smalley, recording eight birdies without a bogey. "Every time my ball got near the hole it seemed to want to go in today," Young said.
- World number one Scottie Scheffler finished at one-under 71, seven shots off the pace after back-to-back bogeys on holes 10 and 11. "Felt like I could have holed a few more putts," Scheffler said.
- The signature event features no 36-hole cut, keeping the entire field intact for the second round. Smalley qualified via the 'Aon Swing 5' performance incentive and remains in contention behind Young.
