Young posts 61, joins 3-way lead at Rocket Classic | Jefferson City News-Tribune

Cameron Young fired a 61 in Friday’s second round of the Rocket Classic at Detroit Golf Club, moving into a tie for the lead at 10-under 130 with Patrick Cantlay and Patrick Fishburn. Starting eight shots behind after a 61 from Peter Malnati on Thursday, Young surged on the back nine with a 28 featuring seven birdies and two pars. The 61 matched the tournament’s single-round scoring record set by Jake Knapp last year. Young tied the team’s Thursday-best effort and remains No. 3 in the FedEx Cup standings, aiming to improve playoff positioning in two weeks. Cantlay shot 66 after a 64 and is projected to rise from No. 43 to No. 21 if results hold.
