Scottie Scheffler opened the tournament with a blistering 10-under 60 on Friday—just one stroke shy of his career low. The performance set expectations high for a weekend charge.
A 10-under 60 on Friday, one stroke off his career low, set the stage for a dramatic weekend.
However, Scheffler could not maintain that level of play. On Saturday, a costly bogey at the 18th hole dropped him one stroke behind Viktor Hovland heading into the final round.
Sunday proved even more turbulent. Despite Hovland making four bogeys in his first ten holes, Scheffler was unable to seize the lead.
Hovland, showing resilience, held on to secure the victory as Scheffler’s comeback effort fell short.
