NASSAU, Bahamas — The world No. 1 showed tremendous skill and dominance as he finished his year off strong. Scottie Scheffler managed to make eight birdies and shoot a 6-under 66 at Albany Club, tying with Jordan Spieth at 9-under 135 halfway through the Hero World Challenge. Following behind them was Brian Harman with a score of 8 under and Tiger Woods at 7 under, making his first start since the Masters and managing to shoot 2-under 70.
Scheffler felt pleased with his performance, particularly proud of his success in his drives and the number of opportunities he created. He made birdie on three of his first seven holes and four birdies in a five-hole stretch starting from No. 11. He’s striving to end the year on a high note and showcase his progress.
Meanwhile, Jordan Speith continued to impress with a clean card and a 5-under 67 on Friday despite feeling rusty. The rest of the field should keep an eye out for his game given his consistent performance so far.
