Scottie Scheffler hits a snag while Wyndham Clark gains a lead. Here's what's to come this weekend at The Players.
's neck determine whether or not the PGA Tour has another runaway winner in one of its high-profile signature events?
Scheffler gutted through a 3-under 69 for a 36-hole total of 8 under, which kept him in contention, albeit in a tie for sixth and 6 strokes back of reigning U.S. Open winner "All you're trying to do is put some pressure on someone," Schauffele said."He's been playing incredible golf for quite a few months now, and he's got the power and precision and he's very confident right now. So it's important to be in that final group just to try and put some pressure on him and try and get going."
"I have so much respect for Scottie and his game and consistency, and he really is kind of the meter right now of where you want to try to be," Clark said."Scottie's always in contention. He's pushed me to be better and it's fun to watch him, and so I'm really trying to catch him. I really owe a lot to him some of my good golf of late.
By winning his first major championship at Los Angeles County Club in June, Clark earned a five-year exemption into the Masters, PGA Championship and The Open, as well as a 10-year exemption into the U.S. Open.
