Yahoo Sports<\/a>. “Every time I’ve played with him, I’ve always been impressed with his game. This week, he hit a lot of quality shots \u2014 a lot of quality iron shots, quality tee shots, especially on the holes where it really matters. There are some tee shots out here that are really difficult, and he stepped up and hit the shots.”<\/p>\nTo Scheffler’s point, Young ranked third in the field in strokes gained from off the tee (3.797) and 26th in strokes gained on approach (0.989). As solid as his ball-striking was, his red-hot putter was what separated him from the field. Young led the field in strokes gained from putting (7.062) and ranked second in scrambling (19\/24) for the week.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“First 27 holes, I don\u2019t think he missed anything really. It was nuts. Guy was just holing everything,” Scheffler said on Sunday. “When you\u2019re hitting really good shots and holing a lot of putts, that\u2019s a recipe to run away with a golf tournament.”<\/p>\n
That’s exactly what Young did, shooting 64-67-70-68 at Doral to run away from the field and cruise to a six-shot victory at 19 under par. Even more impressively, he did so while going head-to-head with the best golfer in the world for 54 holes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
