Cameron Young in driver's seat halfway through Cadillac Championship

Cameron Young built a five-shot advantage at the Cadillac Championship by posting a 5-under-par 67 on Friday at Trump National Doral outside Miami.

Young rocketed up to 13-under 131 while Alex Smalley (second-round 71) found the water on No. 18 for a bogey that dropped him into a tie at 8 under with Canada's Nick Taylor (70) and Jordan Spieth (71).

After capturing the biggest title of his career six weeks ago at The Players Championship, Young finds himself halfway to a Florida double at the PGA Tour's newest $20 million, no-cut signature event. The PGA Tour returned to Trump National Doral and the famed "Blue Monster" for the first time since 2016.

Spieth remains in contention after a ho-hum round. He was 1 over through 15 holes before salvaging the round with birdies at Nos. 16 and 18. Spieth seeks his first win since the 2022 RBC Heritage.

Gary Woodland (69) sits alone in fifth at 7 under.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler (67) moved into a tie for sixth at 6 under alongside South Korea's Si Woo Kim (68), Canada's Taylor Pendrith (67), Norway's Kristoffer Reitan (68), Brian Harman (70) and Englishman Alex Fitzpatrick, whose 66 ranked among the top three rounds of the day.

Fitzpatrick, the younger sibling of World No. 3 Matt Fitzpatrick, became a full PGA Tour member when he and his brother won the Zurich Classic of New Orleans team event on Sunday.
