The world’s top-ranked golfer, Scottie Scheffler, is off to a promising start at Colonial

FORT WORTH, Texas — Scottie Scheffler wasn’t officially in the field for the Charles Schwab Challenge until last week. He committed on Friday, the same day he missed the cut at the PGA Championship.

Scheffler wasn’t happy to be sitting at his home in Dallas over the weekend, of course, but a few days off didn’t seem to hurt. He was among the early leaders coming out of the morning wave at Colonial, firing a 4-under 66 on Thursday.

“I felt like I did a really good job of managing myself around the golf course,” said Scheffler, the top-ranked golfer and reigning Masters champion. “Anytime you make no bogeys, it’s going to be a good round.”
