Scottie Scheffler reminded the golf world why he is the number one ranked player in the world on Sunday.

Pádraig Harrington looked at Rory McIlroy’s run during the opening round at Quail Hollow and muttered, “Even for Rory, the high that he got – you have to have some comedown.” The “comedown” for Rory McIlroy manifests in a tilted head, slumped and sagging shoulders, and absolute silence from his side. However, for a golfer who has achieved his career Grand Slam, the golf world expects a few things from him, like speaking to the media. Does the Northern Irishman do that? No–and that’s the issue. Rory McIlroy’s troubles at Quail Hollow began with a 2-over par in the first…
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – One year ago, Scottie Scheffler was stuffed in the back of a squad car, charged with multiples crimes and stretched for his second-round tee time at the PGA Championship in a jail cell.

Just last year, Tiger Woods made headlines with his gritty return to the PGA Championship after a long three-year absence but ended up missing the cut. Even though he didn’t contend for the win, every swing, wince, and walk down the fairway had fans glued to their screens. Maybe that’s why the numbers last year were great. Unlike this year. So we all know Woods has been fighting through another round of surgeries and setbacks. Last fall, he had a back procedure to ease the chronic pain that’s been haunting him for years. Just as fans were getting hopeful again,…

When talking about memorable U.S. Opens, one has to mention the 2008 match between Tiger Woods and Rocco Mediate. Despite struggling with two stress fractures in his tibia and a knee issue that required arthroscopic surgery, Woods demonstrated remarkable resilience to win the tournament.

It may be a cold, harsh truth about the man, the myth, and the legend, but over the years, Tiger Woods‘s performance has significantly declined because of age and injuries.
