"Scheffler needed birdies. And he got them. He made five altogether, along with an eagle. He scored 65, seven under. It was the best round he's ever played in the Masters."
"They say Augusta National was designed to be a second shot golf course, and when he's in this sort of form there's nobody better at them than Scheffler."
"The crowd were thick around him now. They'd stuck his name up on the big white leaderboards around the grounds. They don't allow any running at Augusta but as word spread that Scheffler was on a tear people came marching from all corners to catch up to him."
"I think that's what great players do, Scheffler said. They rise to the occasion when you are at the biggest tournaments, and you'd be hard pressed to find another tournament that's bigger than this one, especially for me."
Scottie Scheffler, after watching Rory McIlroy's impressive play, shifted his perspective on the tournament. Despite being 12 shots behind, he focused on making birdies and achieved five, along with an eagle, scoring 65, his best round at the Masters. His performance peaked at the 2nd hole with an eagle and continued to excel at the 7th, 8th, and 9th holes, putting him five under through nine. The crowd grew as he approached Amen Corner, showcasing his skill and determination.
