Scottie Scheffler Had a Sweet Answer About His Wife After Winning Players Championship
Scottie Scheffler made history Sunday when he stormed back to win his second straight Players Championship with a final round at TPC Sawgrass that never will be forgotten.
The No. 1 player in the world fired an 8-under 64 and then held on to win after three players, including Wyndham Clark, missed birdie putts on the final hole that would have forced a playoff.
