Scottie Scheffler on the Verge of Fourth PGA Tour Win in Five Starts at RBC Heritage
Scottie Scheffler is on the verge of another impressive victory on the PGA Tour, as he holds a commanding five-stroke lead with just three holes to play at the RBC Heritage in South Carolina. After winning The Masters last week and claiming back-to-back titles at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players in March, Scheffler is showing no signs of slowing down.
Currently sitting at 20 under par after 15 holes, Scheffler is in prime position to secure his fourth win in five starts. His closest competitor, 2023 US Open champion Wyndham Clark, sits at 15 under par in the clubhouse, but Scheffler’s dominant performance has put him well ahead of the pack.
Despite a brief delay in play due to storms on Sunday, Scheffler remained focused and determined. He eagled the second hole and picked up birdies along the way to maintain his lead. With the threat of darkness looming, play was eventually called off and is set to resume on Monday at 1pm UK time.
As Scheffler aims to make history by becoming the first player since Bernhard Langer in 1985 to win on the PGA Tour a week after winning The Masters, his competitors are finding it difficult to keep up. Clark, who briefly closed the gap to within one stroke of Scheffler, acknowledged the challenge of chasing the in-form golfer.
With just a few holes left to play, all eyes are on Scheffler as he looks to add another impressive victory to his already stellar season. Golf fans can catch the conclusion of the RBC Heritage live on Sky Sports Golf and witness Scheffler’s potential triumph.
