Cam Young has played some sensational golf through two rounds of the Cadillac Championship this week.
Young has posted rounds of 64 and 67 at the Cadillac Championship, and is currently sitting on 13-under par heading into the weekend, five strokes clear of three players on eight-under.

Perhaps Scottie Scheffler sitting on six-under par will be Cam Young’s biggest threat this week.
However, the 28-year-old is playing so well right now, it’s doubtful that anyone will even be able to get close to him.

Even Young’s poor shots resulted in surprisingly positive outcomes.
Perhaps the best example of that was Young’s 16-foot putt for birdie on the long par-three 13th hole.
The American hit what he thought was a really poor putt and immediately walked towards the hole, but he ended up in genuine shock as his ball found the bottom of the cup.
Young responded to reporters when asked what happened there on the 13th green.
“Yeah, I was absolutely disgusted about halfway there,“ Young admitted.

“I think my read netted out to be okay, but I just thought it was going to go a little bit left and then a little bit right and it ended up going six inches left and six inches right.

“So it got way left of where I thought it had a chance to go in and then just on a day like that when you’re putting well some of those they tend to wobble into the hole and that one did.“
What Cam Young expects from the chasing pack at the Cadillac
The two-time PGA Tour winner has his sights set on winning the third title of his career.
However, that certainly won’t be easy, with so many talented golfers ready to chase down his lead over the weekend.
When addressing the media after his round, Young shared how he plans to attack the golf course this weekend.
“I think you have to be ready for them to go low,“ Young said.

“I don’t know exactly what the weather looks like, but there’s been scoring in the morning every day out here.
“There were a couple guys that went nuts this morning. I feel like you have to be ready for that.
“I may have a two- or three- or four-shot lead starting tomorrow, but it just goes away so fast out there.
“There’s no sense really playing like you have a four-shot lead, you might as well play like you’re four back.“
