DUBLIN, Ohio — Adam Hadwin had too many birdies to complain about ending his round at the Memorial on a sour note Thursday. His 6-under 66 was enough to lead Masters champion Scottie Scheffler by one shot and give the Canadian hope he is turning the corner at the right time.
“I'm going to go to the range and hit the center of the clubface a little more, find some more fairways and greens,” he said. “I'm happy. I'm happy with how I stuck in there and really happy my short game bailed me out on a day that could have been a lot worse.” Hadwin hasn't finished in the top 40 since late March, and his world ranking has dropped from No. 44 to No. 59.
Scheffler has been in the process for what seems like forever. He already is a four-time winner this year, including another Masters title. He never seems to miss a shot. So he went for the green and watched it fly 60 yards left of where he wanted — left of the green, left of the water, left of a red hazard line that rarely comes into a play on a hill.
Schauffele was bogey-free and he's not sure how. His biggest scare also came at the fifth with a mud ball of his own. This sailed right on him into a bunker, requiring a shot over another bunker to a tight pin. The sand was wet, Schauffele caught too much ball and watched it disappeared over the green. That's where more water awaits.
