Why Scottie’s Streak Is Different

  • Scottie Scheffler's dominance combines elite ball-striking and a near-flawless short game to win repeatedly.
  • His 10-for-10 record when tied for or one back of the lead shows rare final-round mental strength.
ANECDOTE

Chips Closer Than Putts

  • Scottie's short-game precision in the final round included chips consistently closer than competitors' putts.
  • Blades Brown and the hosts marveled that many chips didn't drop despite being inside tap-in range.

  • Scheffler's made birdie distances in final rounds were almost always inside a few feet, signaling exceptional approach precision.
  • That proximity converts pressure putts and multiplies his winning probability in tight finishes.
