On May 2nd, 2026, Round 2 at the Blue Monster delivered wild flagstick ricochets, mid-round physio sessions, and a dominant performance by Cameron Young to secure a commanding five-shot lead heading into the weekend.

• Cameron Young is dismantling the Blue Monster, firing a brilliant 67 to build a massive five-shot cushion at 13-under par. His ball-striking clinic was highlighted by a viral, no-look par save on the 9th hole.
• "I am not sure he thought that was going in," commentators noted as Young turned his back in disgust before the ball miraculously lipped in.
• Sometimes it's just your day—even when you think you've missed left, the golf gods decide to drop it right in the center of the cup.

• Sitting at T2 (-8) after a grinding 71, Jordan Spieth is deploying an "under reacting" strategy to avoid tilt. Despite par-5 frustrations, he snagged a "huge steal" birdie on 18 to stay in the hunt.
• Spieth plans to play conservatively through Doral's brutal stretches while aggressively attacking 6-7 opportunistic holes this weekend.
• Spieth's battle against his own emotions is just as compelling as his battle against the course, proving that staying level-headed is half the battle.

• Alex Fitzpatrick surged to 6-under with a bogey-free 66, sparked by a late-night iron overhaul. He also broke down the terrifying 20-yard-wide 18th fairway, marveling at Nicolai Hojgaard's ability to simply blast right over it.
• Reflecting on winning alongside his brother Matt, Alex described the lingering "overwhelming feeling of joy" as "impossible to try and translate into words."
• Nothing beats the brotherly bond in golf, except maybe finding your swing in the dark on the driving range the night before a bogey-free round.

Scottie Scheffler's perfect wedge suffers a brutal "bad luck" flagstick ricochet on hole 5 • Ben Griffin sticks a 115-foot apex drive for a tap-in eagle on the drivable 16th • Nick Taylor shows immense grit getting mid-round grass physio for his back, while J.T. Poston smiles through a goose delay on the 5th green.
