“The more free and loose I can play, especially on the greens, it’s usually the better off I am.”
“I hit a lot of good putts today,” he said. If there has been any weakness with his game of late it has been with his putter – especially at the Masters in April – but that wasn’t the case in the opening round of the PGA Championship. I basically just went back to sleep,” he said. “So I showered and shaved and all that stuff. The start of the tournament was delayed for more than an hour by frost, but it didn’t bother Scheffler, who received word that tee times would be pushed back while he was still at his rental house. Scheffler, who started on the back nine, poured in 15-foot birdie putts at the short par-4 14 th and the par-3 fifth and wedged from 121 yards to 3 feet to set up his final birdie of the day at No. In 10 starts this year, he hasn’t finished worse than T-12, and is coming off a T-5 at the AT&T Byron Nelson in his hometown of Dallas last week. He already has bagged two PGA Tour titles, the WM Phoenix Open in February and the Players Championship in March. Good things have been happening for Scheffler all year. “If you can limit the mistakes, good things will happen, I guess.” So getting around with no bogeys was really good,” Scheffler said.
“Today was probably the easiest conditions we’ll see all week with the golf course.
On Thursday, Scheffler backed up his confident words, carding a bogey-free 3-under 67 at Oak Hill, which tied him with Canadian Corey Conners for second place, just one stroke off the pace set by Bryson DeChambeau.
