  "account": "Scottie Scheffler expressed dissatisfaction with East Lake's par-3 ninth hole, describing it as difficult to separate at. On that hole in three rounds, there were only two birdies and six bogeys, amounting to 79 pars. The 87 players on the hole had a tough time making birdies, with the best par 3s generally being the short ones. Scheffler, known for his exceptional ball-striking, felt the large greens and big slopes, along with pins tucked close to the edges, made it hard to make big shots, leading to close scores.",
