Scottie Scheffler had more stress than he wanted Sunday at the Memorial and got the victory everyone has come to expect.
DUBLIN, Ohio — Winning has become a habit for Scottie Scheffler, except there was nothing typical about his victory Sunday at the Memorial.
Scheffler endured more stress than he wanted and got the victory everyone has come to expect, his fifth of the season — one week into the month of June — as he heads for another tough test next week in the U.S. Open. “This is a tough place to close out,” Scheffler said. “I didn’t do a whole lot great today, but I did enough.”Scheffler was leading Morikawa by one shot and both hit approach shots that bounced hard and high off the green and into the rough. Both chipped to about 5 feet. Scheffler buried his putt to win, and the force of his fist pump to celebrate showed how tough this day was on him, and practically everybody.
Adam Hadwin was right there with them until closing with three straight bogeys for a 74 to finish alone in third. That’s next week at Pinehurst No. 2, and Scheffler will go to the U.S. Open as a huge favorite. This was his 11th consecutive tournament with a top 10. Next up is the so-called toughest test in golf, and players felt like they just got finished with one at Muirfield Village.
