Scottie Scheffler, the world's No. 1 player, ran away from the field on Friday. That included Tiger Woods, who made the cut after an eventful second round.
Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley said Mickelson was invited but chose not to play. The second round of the Masters can be a time to go low. To add insult to injury, his short bogey putt rimmed out and he left the hole with a double after his second career Masters four-putt (the first was 17 years ago). But Thomas seems to have channeled that anger nicely. Both of Thomas’s birdies, at the second and third holes, came after he found the sand. Both Weiskopf and Johnny Miller missed makable birdie putts at the 18th to finish one stroke back of Nicklaus at the end. There are only a handful of golfers with under-par rounds at the third round of the Masters, which once again is being played in difficult conditions. Woods’s first three-putt bogey came on the first hole when his long birdie attempt up and over a ridge ended up well short of the hole, and he missed the nine-footer for par. But that club was Woods’s downfall Saturday at the Masters, as he had four three-putts and a four-putt on his way to a 6-over-par 78. Cameron Smith birdied the par-5 15th hole to move to 5 under par for his round and 7 under par for the tournament. Scheffler will be paired Sunday with Australia’s Cameron Smith, the only golfer who looks to pose any sort of challenge and, frankly, an appropriate competitor because it will settle for now the argument about who has been more dominant this year. Scheffler sent his tee shot dead left into the bush, and it took a not-insignificant amount of time to merely find his unplayable ball.
That gave the 25-year-old American a commanding five-shot lead over defending champion Hideki Matsuyama, 2011 winner Charl Schwartzel, Ireland's Shane Lowry and ...

And while he never his name at the top of the leaderboard like he did early on in 2016, Scheffler’s overall tournament performance was much steadier. Scheffler has made five starts in major tournaments since, and has finished in the top 20 of every tournament. That “height advantage” hasn’t always been the case for Scheffler, though, who was actually on the shorter side until midway through his time high school, when he grew a full foot over his junior and senior years at Highland Park. “So the way I broke my ankle was not tough, but I did play on like a sprained ankle or whatever in the state tournament. It was my left ankle, and I just played all week with my foot turned out to the side and just kind of grinded it out I guess.” Scheffler’s opening-round 69, coupled with three separate rain delays that meant the majority of the field didn’t finish their rounds, gave him top billing for the day, even though a handful of golfers still on the course were a shot or two better at -3 and -2. One of the first pieces of golf hardware that Scheffler won was a UIL state championship in golf. Scheffler won the 4A 2013-2014 state title by six shots in a two-round event. Scheffler won the first four holes of the match and never looked back. And he made good use of that spot in the field. And it was the first-ever sub-60 round to happen without spectators, since it happened right in the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic. Stafford led the Rams to a win over Cincinnati while Scheffler outdueled Patrick Cantlay in a playoff to win the WM Phoenix Open. Meanwhile, Kershaw signed his latest eight-figure contract with the Dodgers a few short weeks later.

Woods needed a fairway wood to attempt to reach the green on the par-three fourth and tugged his shot left of the green, but produced a superb chip over a bunker to save par. After saving par on the first, Scheffler birdied the second and third to move six shots clear, before a bogey on the fourth and Lowry’s second birdie of the day on the sixth meant the gap was down to four. After a perfect drive on the first, Woods hit a mediocre approach and three-putted from long range for a disappointing bogey, but almost holed his greenside bunker shot for an eagle on the par-five second and tapped in for birdie.
History was firmly on Scottie Scheffler's side as he attempted to cement his position as world number one with a first major title in the 86th Masters.

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER'S amazing rise to world No 1 — and his Masters glory bid — is inspired by a young cancer victim.Scheffler, 25, and James Rag.
He was inspirational.” “I don’t want to put words into Scottie’s mouth but I’d like to think that James had a really positive impact on him. "James would say to me, ‘I only have so many days, months, years to live, and I’m trying to make the most of what I can with my time. He also met Scottie. He had only just turned 13. “They met through golf.
No, Mecklin Ragan is not in Georgia to watch family friend Scottie Scheffler attempt to win the Masters, her general surgery residency keeping her in Columbus, ...
He earmarked $50,000 to the Triumph Over Kid Cancer Foundation. His donations have not stopped, and he has partnered with Mecklin to create a program that brings kids battling cancer into golf. And now Scheffler’s ascension coincides with Masters week, the week Mecklin and James held sacred. Now 30, Mecklin—who was inspired by James to dedicate her life to pediatric care—is amazed that Scheffler has remained true to who he is in spite of the new heights he’s reached. “I think Scottie respected how James was trying to live his life, to have fun and get good at a sport he enjoyed while trying to deal with cancer and trying to help others with cancer. I like to think as touched as James was by the support, people liked being around him because he was a constant inspiration. "He would come down on Friday and be right back in Austin the next day, but he wanted to do what he could to keep the memory of James going.” And through his education and golf and treatments James continued to spread the word on his mission, annually holding a golf scramble that doubled as a toga party to raise funds to battle the disease, an event Scottie never missed. Shortly after he was told the end was near. In college we would fire up our computers and stream it in the back of class,” Mecklin says. “He spent most of his time at the local golf course.” “I’ve never seen them so happy,” Mecklin says. The surgery replaced 40 percent of his femur and 20 percent of his tibia with metal.

At times, it was frustrating to watch—and it had to be a Masters record for changing outerwear throughout a round. So, yeah, he's making a nice check. I hope he makes a nice check this week. The players didn't have it any easier. Scottie just didn't like wearing it when hitting a shot. Or a putt.
