Dating back to 1962 and through 2016, Trump National Doral (formerly Doral Country Club) hosted a PGA Tour event. It was the Doral Open at the famed Blue Monster Course from 1962 to 2006, then a premier WGC-Cadillac Championship from 2007 to 2016.
After a 10-year hiatus, the PGA Tour is back with 72 golfers teeing it up in a no-cut event this week.
Given that this is a Signature Event, the field once again is stacked with world No. 1 and Masters runner-up Scottie Scheffler, Players winner Cam Young, and two-time major winner Collin Morikawa. Masters champion Rory McIlroy and FedExCup leader Matt Fitzpatrick are among those not present.
The long, 7,700-yard Blue Monster course has catered to long hitters off the tee and those with overall good tee-to-green and approach metrics.
Let's break down our 2026 Cadillac Championship at Doral Blue predictions and PGA picks this week, including picks for potential winners or top finishers.

Cameron Young Cadillac Championship Prediction
Cameron Young Cadillac Championship Winner Payout: Yes 10x
Top 10 Payout: Yes 2.22x | No 1.61x
- Cameron Young has all the ingredients we're looking for this week. He's 10th in shots gained off the tee and is 32nd in driving distance and 18th on approach. He leads the Tour in approach from 250-275 yards and is in the top five from 275+ yards and 175-200 yards.
- He's also leads in total driving, is second in proximity to the hole, and sits sixth tee-to-green.
- It's a premier event, and we've seen what Young can do at those, winning the Players Championship on the long TPC Sawgrass course and holding a lead on the last day of the Masters.
- The Wake Forest product has five consecutive top-25 finishes, including going seventh, third, and winning in a four-event stretch that included the Masters, the Players, and two Signature Events.
Chris Gotterup Cadillac Championship Prediction
Chris Gotterup Cadillac Championship Winner Payout: Yes 22.22x
Top 20 Payout: Yes 2.77x | No 1.29x
- Sticking with the approach of long off the tee and good with long irons, Chris Gotterup fits that bill as he's fourth on Tour in driving distance, sixth in total driving, and eighth in shots gained off the tee.
- Gotterup is also 31st in approach. He's sixth on approaches from 275+ yards and ninth tee-to-green.
- One of two multi-time winners this season, Gotterup won in Hawaii and on the long track in Phoenix. He also finished sixth at the Memorial track in Houston and has back-to-back top-25s in Augusta and at the RBC Heritage.
- The Rutgers and Oklahoma product has gained strokes off the tee and on approach in all 10 starts this season. Per Data Golf, Gotterup has gained more strokes off the tee in the last year than any other golfer.
Kurt Kitayama Cadillac Championship Prediction
Kurt Kitayama Cadillac Championship Winner Payout: Yes 33.33x
Top 20 Payout: Yes 3.33x
- Kurt Kitayama is a longer shot who ranks in the top 10 of the field in driving distance and has gained strokes on approach in 20 straight starts.
- He's 11th on approach, which includes leading the Tour from beyond 275 yards, and is seventh between 175 and 200 yards. He's also 14th in proximity to the hole.
- The UNLV product finished as runner-up at Genesis, was eighth at the RBC Heritage, and was among the leaders after 18 holes at both the Houston Open and Augusta National.
- Kitayama’s struggles have been on the greens, where he's 118th in putting and 116th in putts per round.
Collin Morikawa Cadillac Championship Prediction
Collin Morikawa Cadillac Championship Top 10 Payout: Yes 2.7x | No 1.42x
- Collin Morikawa won the Signature Event at Pebble Beach in February and followed it up with a T-7 at Genesis and finished fifth at the long Bay Hill.
- He was a popular pick and one of the favorites to win the Players before withdrawing early, but he returned for Masters week and hobbled himself to a seventh-place finish. He was then fourth at RBC two weeks ago.
- The Cal-Berkeley product leads the Tour in shots gained on approach, which includes being fifth from 175 to 200 yards and sixth in proximity to the hole.
- While not long off the tee, Morikawa is accurate (seventh) and his overall tee-to-green game is second to only McIlroy.
