Key takeaway Scheffler missed two key putts in the final three holes Friday in the Scottish Open, the last one from 6 feet for par that gave him a 2-over 72 to miss the 36-hole cut by two shots.
Why this matters in The San Antonio
San Antonio golf fans who have been following Scottie Scheffler's impressive streak will be disappointed to see it come to an end. With 78 consecutive cuts made, Scheffler had been a model of consistency on the PGA Tour. His performance has likely inspired many local golfers, from amateurs playing at municipal courses to aspiring pros competing in regional tournaments. As the world's No. 1 player prepares to defend his title at the British Open, San Antonio residents will be watching to see how he bounces back from this setback. The fact that Scheffler is already looking ahead to Royal Birkdale, a links course he has not played, suggests that he is focused on the bigger picture and eager to get back on track. Local golf enthusiasts will be eager to see how he performs in the British Open and whether he can regain his momentum.
