Short on style points, Scheffler maintains two-shot lead at the FedEx St. Jude
Whatever Scottie Scheffler's ho-hum 2-under 68 on Moving Day in Memphis lacked in flare it made up for in patience.
Memphis, Tennessee – Despite golf's unpredictable nature, Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, maintained a two-shot lead in the FedEx St. Jude Championship on the final day of play. His third-round 68 was not as impressive as his previous round of 61, but it still displayed his customary precision. Throughout the tournament, Scheffler's putting has been a point of concern, but he managed to keep his lead intact with crucial 10-15 foot saves at holes 3 and 15.
When asked about the significance of those crucial shots, Scheffler emphasized how they helped him keep the momentum going. Sam Burns, tied for second, acknowledged Scheffler's consistent performance throughout his career, stating the challenge ahead for any competitor trying to catch him. The final round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship is set to begin Sunday at TPC Southwind in Memphis.
