Cameron Young started the day with a six-shot lead and began his round by calling a penalty on himself on the par-4 2nd. He was assessed a one-stroke penalty for a breach of Rule 9.4 (player caused their ball at rest to move). He made a 13ft 6in putt to save par and went on to fire six birdies and two bogeys to close with a 68, reach 19-under and win the Cadillac Championship by six strokes.
“It’s just one of those [at the 2nd], your heart sinks when you see it move, but it moved and that’s part of what golf’s about. There was no one that was going to give me a penalty there but myself and I think I had about four of those on the PGA Tour now, so I need to start setting the club down a little softer. But yeah just one of those times. I mean, I wasn’t going to look the other way and say it didn’t move when it rolled over an inch forward, so just unfortunate, but handled it really well,” said Young.
He led the field in Birdies (24) and Strokes Gained: Putting (7.062).
“We didn’t know exactly how the day was going to go, whether we would be starting and stopping. Started with a delay. It was just one of those times that I feel like that played into my hands and just being really accepting of what came next. Just staying in what we were doing all day,” he added.
“I think when the golf course is difficult, when the conditions are difficult, that tend to make it easier for me mentally. Yeah, that’s a big part of keeping yourself in it out here. It’s difficult with the wind and the conditions were pretty benign today, but it is still a hard golf course and thankfully I was able to stay where my feet were and hit a bunch of good shots.
“To me I feel like I had different parts of the game working on different days. Today I drove it a lot better. First couple days I putted great and I drove it a little bit more all over the place. Thankfully I feel like I’ve got a lot of tools right now and throughout the week I was able to use different parts of the game to keep myself moving in the right direction.”
This was the American’s third career PGA Tour victory and second this season in his 107th start at the age of 28 (2025 Wyndham Championship, 2026 Players Championship, 2026 Cadillac Championship). He becomes the second wire-to-wire winner this season (Justin Rose/Farmers Insurance Open. It is the first time there have been multiple wire-to-wire winners on Tour since 2022 (Joaquin Niemann/Genesis Invitational, J.T. Poston/John Deere Classic).
He earned his fifth top-10 finish in nine starts on Tour this season (T7/The Genesis Invitational, T3/Arnold Palmer Invitational, Won/The Players Championship, T3/The Masters Tournament, Won/Cadillac Championship).
American Scottie Scheffler also fired six birdies and two bogeys for a 68 and finished runner-up for the third consecutive time (2nd/Masters Tournament, P2/RBC Heritage, 2nd/Cadillac Championship), becoming the first player since Sergio Garcia in 2014 to finish runner-up in three consecutive starts. He earned his 29th straight top-25 finish on Tour (last finish outside the top 25: 2024 BMW Championship/T33).
Compatriot Ben Griffin bogeyed the 18th and also posted a 68 in the final round to finish third at 12-under. This marks his second consecutive top-10 result this season (T10/Zurich Classic of New Orleans).
2016 WGC-Cadillac Championship winner Adam Scott of Australia recorded a bogey-free, 8-under 64, one of the low rounds of the day on Trump National’s Blue Monster (other: Sahith Theegala) to finish T4 at 11-under. He posted a 66-64 in his last two rounds, marking his first back-to-back rounds of 6-under par or better since 2019.
Austrian Sepp Straka made seven birdies, four of them consecutively from the 12th, and one bogey for a 66 and tied for fourth, his third top-10 finish this season (T2/AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, T8/The Players Championship, T4/Cadillac Championship) just one week before he is set to defend at the Truist Championship.
Korean Si Woo Kim carded three birdies and one bogey for a 70 and also finished T4.
England’s Alex Fitzpatrick, winner of last week’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans (with brother Matt) posted a 9-under 279 and finished T9 in his first start as a PGA Tour member.
The 18th hole of Trump National Doral’s Blue Monster course played as the toughest final hole on Tour this season at an average of 0.382 strokes over par (next hardest: TPC Sawgrass/0.34 strokes over par).
