Scheffler didn’t do anything spectacular, he just didn’t do anything spectacularly wrong – when you think about it, that is the essence of golf, and maybe of life
Scottie Scheffler of the United States speaks to the crowd during the Green Jacket Ceremony after winning the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club on April 14, in Augusta, Georgia.As he won his second Masters in three years on Sunday, Scottie Scheffler didn’t weep or scream or fall on the ground. People have started doing that sort of thing recently, but Scheffler isn’t a huge celebrator, and it wasn’t that kind of weekend.Scheffler could have moonwalked through the back nine.
This won’t be remembered as a great Masters. Even now, right after it’s ended, it’s hard to pick out a highlight. Maybe the rough weather over the first two days. Or Bryson DeChambeau tearing a massive signpost out of the ground because it was in his way and carrying it off like a man headed to Calvary.
“It’s warm. It’s sunny. It’s the Masters,” CBS emcee Jim Nantz said at some point, but I missed the second half because I had drifted off. Scheffler is the perfect person for that job. A beige, expressionless man in a peach shirt playing mistake-free golf. Scheffler doesn’t make it look easy, but he does make it look like you could do it, too .He’s 27, has won two Masters, and I genuinely wonder if his heart rate has ever hit triple digits.
Because of an early weather delay, he had to play a round-and-a-half on Friday. He did make the cut. It was a big story.
