Scottie Scheffler didn’t need any help from his struggling putter at the par-3 eighth hole at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas on Sunday.
The world No. 2 made the second hole-in-one of his PGA Tour career in the final round of the 2023 Charles Schwab Championship.
The native Texan’s 7-iron at the 189-yard par-3 bounced twice on the green and made a bee line for the hole. Scheffler lifted his arms to the heavens and celebrated by hugging caddie Ted Scott.
It was the second ace of the week at the hole – Harris English did the same on Friday – and the second ace for Scheffler on the PGA Tour, who made his previous hole-in-one down the road in Dallas during the third round of the 2014 AT&T Byron Nelson.
The ace lifted Scheffler to 7 under for the tournament and in fourth place despite ranking last among the field of 72 to make the cut in Strokes Gain: putting this week. The ace was a continuation of Scheffler’s ball-striking prowess. He ranks first in Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green.
Scheffler lost in a playoff at this event a year earlier to Sam Burns.
ACE FOR SCHEFFLER!!
