   PGA Tour : Cadillac Championship Leaderboard Tee Times

The very early groups are just approaching the turn in Sunny hot 86*f Miami at this weeks signature event the Cadillac Championship on what is now called Trump National on the fabled Blue Monster course which has been completely restored from it's glory years as the Doral Open.

This it's inaugural season with a restricted 72 man field and no cut, Masters champion Rory McIlroy, Xander Schauffele and Matt Fitzpatrick from the owgr top 10 are not playing.

There are 4 Canadians who have qualified, Corey Conners, Nick Taylor and Taylor Pendrith none of whom have been in great form, and Sudarshan Yellamaraju who has played very well.

FINAL EDIT >>> 26/04/30

Cameron Young continues his fine form,, the Players Champion drives it 10 yards longer than most PGA Tour pros, is straighter than 25% and is amongst the leaders in long iron play. Today he made putts from all over for a bogey free 64 to take the first round lead.

Jordan Spieth 65 is 2nd at -7 with Alex Smalley.

Canada's Nick Taylor T4 with one of his best rounds of the year, bogey free 6 birdie 66. He was out with 8 pars,1 birdie at the the 7th 35. However his back nine featured birdies at the 10th, 13th 15th 17th and a closing 18th, 31.

You have to go back to the season opener at the Sony Open where he opened with 62 to find his best of this season.

Canadians

Nick Taylor T4 66 -6

Taylor Pendrith T27 71 -1

Corey Conners T48 73 +1

Sudarshan Yellamaraju T52 74 +2

Note*** Pre tournament favourite Scott Scheffler opened well with 3 birdies 33, however 2 sloppy bogey's, a 6 at the par 5 10th where he was in 2 fairway bunkers, and a 5 at the par 4 11th was all he could muster in yet another indifferent opening round. T27 -1 71.
