AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler manages enormous expectations so well because he never spends too much time thinking about the past or the future. The temptation was never so great at the Masters.
Behind him was a swift sequence of events that put him in control at Augusta National when three of his closest challengers made double bogey in the heart of Amen Corner. Ahead of him was the dreamy prospect of another Masters green jacket.
All he thought about was the 215 yards between his golf ball and the flag on the par-5 13th late Sunday afternoon. His lead was two shots over Ludvig Aberg, the 24-year-old Swede who a year ago was in college and played his first Masters as the No. 9 player in the world.
Scheffler was oblivious to everything except what was in front of him.
“He just seemed focused on doing Scottie Scheffler things,” said Ted Scott, the caddie who has been on Scheffler’s bag during his amazing ride to the top of the golf world.
