Scottie Scheffler, frustrated with his performance at the U.S. Open, threw his putter in the air after missing a crucial putt at Pinehurst No. 2. The difficult greens at the course have been causing problems for many players, and Scheffler was no exception. Despite making par on his first five holes, he struggled and finished with a 4-over 74, failing to record a single birdie throughout the round.
As the current world’s No. 1 golfer, Scheffler was expected to perform well at the tournament, especially after winning five times this season, including prestigious events like the Players Championship and the Memorial. However, he is now in danger of missing the cut line by one stroke, with the U.S. Open cut set at the top 60 and ties.
Although Scheffler’s frustration was evident on the course, it is important to note that earlier this year, he faced legal issues when he was arrested before a round at the PGA Championship. Fortunately, all charges against him have been dropped since then.
It will be interesting to see if Scheffler can turn things around in the remaining rounds of the U.S. Open and secure a spot in the weekend play. Fans of the sport are eagerly watching to see if the top-ranked player can overcome the challenges posed by Pinehurst No. 2 and continue his successful season on the PGA Tour. Stay tuned for more updates on Scheffler’s performance and the overall results of the U.S. Open tournament.
