Cameron Young has done it again. The rising star delivered a masterclass performance at the 2026 Cadillac Championship, held at the iconic Trump National Doral in Miami, and walked away with a staggering $3.6 million winner's check. This victory marks his second signature event win in just three months, cementing his status as one of the most dominant players on Tour this season.
Young entered the weekend with a commanding five-shot lead and never looked back, ultimately securing a six-stroke victory—the second-largest margin on Tour this season, trailing only Justin Rose's impressive win at Torrey Pines. Over the first two rounds, Young carded just a single bogey, showcasing the kind of flawless golf that fans dream of. His highlight came on Sunday at the par-4 16th, where he drove the green and calmly two-putted for birdie, putting an exclamation point on a week where no one could catch him.
Scottie Scheffler finished alone in second place at 13-under par, earning $2.18 million. It was Scheffler's third consecutive runner-up finish and the 13th of his career, a testament to his consistency even when he's not holding the trophy. Ben Griffin rounded out the top three, taking home $1.38 million for his strong showing.
The Cadillac Championship returned as a signature event this season, boasting a massive $20 million purse. It also marked a historic moment for the Tour, as it was the first time in a decade that a PGA event was played at Trump National Doral. The tournament had previously moved to Mexico before the World Golf Championships series was shelved, making this comeback especially meaningful for players and fans alike.
With this win, Young's season earnings have now soared past $11 million, proving that his game is built for the biggest stages. Whether you're a fan of his powerful drives or his cool demeanor under pressure, one thing is clear: Cameron Young is playing golf at an elite level, and the rest of the Tour is taking notice.
