1
00:00:00,236 --> 00:00:04,136
Scotty Scheffler World number
one, but is the hottest streak

2
00:00:04,136 --> 00:00:06,176
in golf about to go stone cold?

3
00:00:06,536 --> 00:00:10,256
Could his rain as the top dog be
over before the majors even begin?

4
00:00:10,646 --> 00:00:13,556
Let's break down what's really
happening and why his biggest

5
00:00:13,556 --> 00:00:15,356
fans might be worried right now.

6
00:00:15,606 --> 00:00:19,806
He's got the stats, he's got the winds,
but something is off and you won't

7
00:00:19,806 --> 00:00:23,646
believe what the numbers actually say
about Scheffer's 2026 season so far.

8
00:00:23,896 --> 00:00:24,316
Yes.

9
00:00:24,316 --> 00:00:26,386
Scotty Scheffer's, the number
one player in the world.

10
00:00:26,776 --> 00:00:30,406
Yes, he's already notched a win this
year, but at the American Express, which

11
00:00:30,406 --> 00:00:35,656
let's be real, isn't exactly a powerhouse
turning since then, two top tens.

12
00:00:35,956 --> 00:00:39,526
But at Riviera, his first real
test of the season, Scotty

13
00:00:39,526 --> 00:00:41,176
stumbled outside the top 10.

14
00:00:41,426 --> 00:00:45,596
The fact is Scheffler is the reigning
champ at the PGA and the Open.

15
00:00:45,846 --> 00:00:50,076
But here's the thing, iconic
careers are built on big wins, not

16
00:00:50,076 --> 00:00:52,056
smaller field events like the Amex.

17
00:00:52,401 --> 00:00:55,281
If Scotty wants to join the
Legends, he's gotta step up

18
00:00:55,281 --> 00:00:56,691
when the lights are brightest.

19
00:00:56,941 --> 00:00:58,321
Here's a stat you can't ignore.

20
00:00:58,621 --> 00:01:04,051
In his past three tournaments, Scotty's
opened with rounds of 73, 72, and 74.

21
00:01:04,301 --> 00:01:07,751
That's meh at best, especially
for world number one.

22
00:01:08,001 --> 00:01:09,801
Why is he always falling behind early?

23
00:01:10,191 --> 00:01:11,031
Is it nerves?

24
00:01:11,036 --> 00:01:15,001
Lack of preparation, getting too
comfortable or just bad luck he's been

25
00:01:15,001 --> 00:01:16,981
chasing on Sunday instead of leading.

26
00:01:17,281 --> 00:01:20,971
And while his final round 63 at
Pebble Beach was a showstopper,

27
00:01:21,271 --> 00:01:22,921
it was too little, too late.

28
00:01:23,401 --> 00:01:27,361
Yes, he clawed his way back to forth,
but when you're number one, clawing

29
00:01:27,361 --> 00:01:29,311
back shouldn't be the storyline.

30
00:01:29,551 --> 00:01:32,611
And right behind him, Rory
McElroy, who just might be heating

31
00:01:32,611 --> 00:01:34,141
up at the exact right time.

32
00:01:34,591 --> 00:01:38,641
Rory's only played two events this year,
but nearly every round has been sub 70

33
00:01:38,971 --> 00:01:43,261
last week tied for second, just a hiccup
with the putter away from a victory.

34
00:01:43,511 --> 00:01:46,391
So who's got the edge heading
into Bay Hill and is the Player's

35
00:01:46,391 --> 00:01:50,141
Championship where we'll finally
see Scotty reclaim his dominance?

36
00:01:50,471 --> 00:01:52,181
Or will Rory steal his thunder?

37
00:01:52,601 --> 00:01:53,261
What do you think?

38
00:01:53,261 --> 00:01:56,771
Is Scotty about to break through, or
is his time at the top already fading?
