Scheffler has been at the top of his game this year, even overtaking Jon Rahm as the World No. 1 earlier. However, considering his struggles, Scheffler seems to be facing less pressure while playing the major.
Scottie Scheffler shares an unpopular opinion about Masters
During a recent interview, Scheffler spoke about his Q-School experience, when he worked hard to get his Korn Ferry Card and win his first event. And when Scheffler had his first win, he had to chase the No. 1 title. Those things never changed for Scheffler, as there is always more pressure when one is fighting for their career.
According to the four-time PGA Tour winner, he has had some success, so the pressure is less.
“I would say there’s more pressure going into the final round of Q-School than there is Masters Sunday,” Scheffler said. “Because, if I fail at Q-School, I’ve got a whole other year where I don’t have anywhere to play”.
