Scottie Scheffler by 2 strokes
Oh, do we have an intriguing little soiree here on the greens. After four rounds, we find Scottie Scheffler sitting comfortably at the top of the leaderboard. With a total score of -11 and a recent victory under his belt at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, our man Scottie is undoubtedly feeling the groove.
A bit behind him at -8, we have Mr. Alex Noren, the 67th-ranked golfer who put up a decent fight to land the 51st position at the Truist Championship. Let's also tip our visors to J.T. Poston who's currently lurking in third place with a score of -7. Poston sits on a 46th Tour Ranking after his 23rd place finish at the Truist.
The flashback reels from last year's PGA Championship highlight Xander Schauffele's dandy performance, scooping the prize with a solid -21. DeChambeau, last year's runner-up, and Viktor Hovland, the third-placer, aren't exactly lighting up the course this time around. Seems like past performance is no guarantee of future results. Who knew?
As for the stars of the last round, Max Homa and Si Woo Kim share the spotlight each with a round score of -7, while Matthieu Pavon trails just behind at -6, performing like a guy whose every putt isn't a negotiation with gravity.
As per the epic, no doubt life-altering, closing prediction you're all panting for--drum roll, please: considering the playoff data, the weight of the recent victories, and the general performance at the event, I'd lay my chips on Scottie Scheffler to chase the victory.
Albert’s Prediction: Scottie Scheffler by 2 strokes.
