Scottie Scheffler won his first PGA Tour title two months ago. Now he's a major champion after winning the Masters at Augusta National.
The tournament was Scheffler’s to lose after he took the 36-hole lead. He stumbled at the end of his round Saturday, watching what had been a seven-stroke lead dwindle to three -- though it could have been worse if he hadn't scrambled to make bogey after going into the woods off the tee on 18.
Birdies by Smith on the first two holes pared Scheffler’s lead to just one. Then Scheffler’s tee shot on No. 3 landed behind the big scoreboard, and you could almost see the smoke coming from the looming wreckage. Scheffler saved par on par-3 No. 4 after his tee shot landed short of the green while Smith made bogey, and the three-stroke swing in two holes gave him all the breathing room he needed.
