扬在前八洞中连续打出七只小鸟,原本有机会创造新纪录 [1]。他表示"我原本以为能打出55杆",但在后九洞表现不佳,遗憾地未能打破吉姆·富瑞克保持十年之久的58杆纪录 [1]。扬本赛季已获得三场胜利,世界排名第3,曾在2024年美国旅行者锦标赛期间打出59杆 [1]。
比赛中,马特·沃莱斯打出64杆,里奇·福勒打出68杆,两人暂时落后领先者两杆 [1]。火箭经典赛是该赛事的第八届也是最后一届 [1]。
Cameron Young carded a 9-under 61 in the second round of the Rocket Classic, tying the single-round record at Detroit Golf Club [1]. Young made seven birdies over his first eight holes but cooled considerably on the back nine, finishing without a bogey [1]. His two-round total of 10-under put him level for the lead alongside Patrick Cantlay and Patrick Fishburn, each of whom shot 66 [1].
Young's round left him tantalizingly close to the course record but ultimately short of his own ambitions. "I was thinking 55," Young said of his aspirations during the round [1]. The 61 fell well short of Jim Furyk's 58-stroke tournament record, which has stood for a decade [1]. Matt Wallace (64) and Rickie Fowler (68) trailed the leaders by two strokes [1].
Young entered the event with momentum from three victories already this season and holds a world ranking of third [1]. He shot a 59 earlier in 2024 at the Travelers Championship [1]. The Rocket Classic, where Young now sits atop the leaderboard, is the eighth and final edition of the tournament [1].
