Scheffler Flirts With Cut Line, Breaks Major Streak
14 Mar
Summary
- Scottie Scheffler narrowly avoided missing the cut at The Players Championship.
- He extended his streak of 70 consecutive made cuts on the PGA Tour.
- Scheffler appeared out of sorts, struggling with his driving and putting.

Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, experienced an uncharacteristic struggle at The Players Championship, narrowly avoiding the cut. He teed off on Friday flirting with elimination, a stark contrast to his usual dominant performances. His erratic play, including bogeys on several holes and a critical three-putt on the 16th, put him in jeopardy of missing his first 36-hole cut in three and a half years.
Despite the pressure, Scheffler made the cut with a birdie on the 18th hole, securing his 70th consecutive made cut on the PGA Tour. This remarkable streak is the longest active one on tour and places him in elite company historically. However, his performance indicated he was far from his best, hitting only seven of 14 fairways and ranking poorly in strokes gained off the tee and putting.
