Cameron Young set to finish season winless but having made a big impression

FOCUS: 25-year-old Cameron Young could be the game's next big thing.  

Odds are that Cameron Young is not going to win the Tour Championship, capping a winless rookie season on the PGA Tour. He started Friday’s second round at East Lake nine shots behind runaway leader Scottie Scheffler, having lost ground Thursday despite shooting 67. That’s a lot of ground to cover even for a player who leads the PGA Tour with 11 rounds of 65 or better this season.

Regardless of how this week turns out for Young, the inescapable impression he’s left in his probable rookie-of-the-year campaign is that he might just be golf’s next Scheffler, a quiet killer who went from winless to world No. 1 to major champion in a span of 57 days earlier this year.
