This Masters truly began for Scottie Scheffler when he missed the fairway at 18. He survived that. Next up is final-round major pressure, Rosenberg_Mike writes
Scheffler stood on the 18th tee with a four-shot lead, looking like he might just suck the tension out of golf’s most tense event. All day, he had been calm and precise, smoothly keeping the field at arm’s length, and then he looked down at the little tunnel between the trees that greets anybody who arrives at 18, and hit the kind of shot that – with that swing that looks like he is trying to pull a hamstring – he looks like he should hit all the time.
The azaleas at Augusta National are lovely unless your ball is beneath one. Scheffler spent the next few minutes doing a botany experiment. He spent enough time in there for playing partner Charl Schwartzel to hit his next shot , for his family to wonder why they hadn’t heard from him for a while, and for everybody watching the Masters to wonder: Bad hole, or disaster?
