Scottie Scheffler confident about his ‘good form’
Scottie Scheffler said that he feels like he’s in good form coming into this week’s event. Despite playing only two tournaments since November, the golfer seems positive about winning the upcoming event.
He said:
It is pertinent to note that Scheffler’s last two results were respectable. The golfer finished second on a stacked field in the Hero Challenge in early December and finished T7 in the Sentry Tournament of Champions in January. With his main rival McIlroy not playing this week’s American Express, it’ll be interesting to see how the American performs at the event.
