LOS ANGELES — Matthew Stafford wasn't the only Highland Park (Texas) High graduate to make his alma mater proud Sunday.
While Stafford, a 2006 graduate of the suburban Dallas school and a football teammate of Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw, was leading the Rams to a 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI, Scottie Scheffler, Highland Park class of 2013, was winning his first PGA Tour event in Arizona.
Scheffler, 25, drained a 25-foot birdie putt on the third playoff hole to defeat Ryder Cup teammate Patrick Cantlay in the Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale for his first win in 71 PGA Tour starts.
