Scottie Scheffler by 2 strokes
Alright, I'm no fortune teller, but let's stick my neck out and examine the field for the final round of the Memorial Tournament at the scenic Muirfield Village. It's Scheffler's game right now, leading the pack at 8 under par. Being the reigning champion of this tournament and ranking 1st on the tour, I'd say he's got a decent shot at this.
But, hey, I wouldn't drag my feet if I were him. Ben Griffin, with recent confidence soaring from his victory at the Charles Schwab, sits just one stroke behind at 7 under. And don’t get me started on Nick Taylor, the 43rd ranked player who's made a fascinating leap, sitting at 5 under.
Now, let’s take a tour down the memory lane. Last year, Collin Morikawa, despite his current shoddy position with a score of +3, had a fantastic run and finished 2nd. A significant boost in the last round could have sports pundits raving about his dramatic comeback. But equally, pigs might fly.
Here’s a thought, keep your eyes on Sepp Straka. Currently 4 under, just off the pace, and sharing the 4th position with Spieth and Bradley. He was a top player last year at the same tournament and trumped everyone in the last round. That could be a pattern, my friends, or a random coincidence. Your call.
But if it's predictions we're dealing with, I'd put my money on Scottie Scheffler. I know, not the most daring guess, considering he's leading and all, but the man has got some rhythm going, and I don't see anyone booting him off his groove.
Albert’s Prediction: Scottie Scheffler by 2 strokes.
