Scheffler's 54-hole lead largest on tour since '11
Briefly

Scottie Scheffler displayed impressive performance at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, retaining an eight-shot lead entering the final round. Despite challenges, including a lengthy weather delay, Scheffler finished with a 5-under 66, highlighting his resurgence in form. He had a slow start but concluded with birdies on three of the last five holes to secure a 23-under total. His performance sets him apart, as it's the biggest 54-hole lead on the PGA Tour in over a decade, indicating his strong potential for clinching the title.
"I saw it take off the way I wanted it to. But after that, I couldn't see that far. Really, I'd say the most challenging part was reading a green."
"Scheffler's six-shot lead after two rounds was a Nelson record, showcasing his dominance over the tournament and his consistency despite missing a record score by just one shot."
