After dominating all PGA season, Scottie Scheffler is confident that he can finish the job and win this weekend. And ahead of the weekend, Justin Thomas joked about all the money Scheffler has been able to make on the tour this season.
“I think I saw Scottie came in and did his interview yesterday and I’m sure he got asked about what was going on, and he’s had one of the best seasons of all time,” said Justin Thomas recently via CBS Sports. “I mean, the most money that’s ever been earned and winning the FedEx Cup by a mile, and I’m sure there weren’t as many questions about that as there should have been.”
Scheffler may be the man in front heading into the weekend, but expect some noise from the crowded leaderboard chasing behind him.
