World No.1 Scottie Scheffler is going to earn a whopping sum of cash (in the tens of millions) dollars at the end of this week by sitting on his couch. Here’s the exact amount.
According to TaylorMade tour rep Adrian Rietveld, Scheffler wants “absolutely nothing inside” his driver’s clubhead that might alter performance in any way.
In playing companion Matt Fitzpatrick’s view, what he witnessed of Scheffler on the greens during the third round at Royal Portrush was far different from the reputation he knew only a few years ago.
There are 18 holes left at Royal Portrush and half a dozen players who have a realistic chance, yet on Sunday at the 2025 Open Championship only two will truly matter, as Rory McIlroy attempts to chase down Scottie Scheffler to become Champion Golfer of the Year.
With two rounds to play, anything can still happen. Yet with the dominant way Scheffler is performing in almost every aspect of the game, he looks like the man to beat this weekend.
