Scheffler, Inspired by Woods, Doesn't Like Comparisons to Him

Scottie Scheffler credits Tiger Woods as an inspiration but emphasizes his own consistent intensity and preparation led to multiple major wins and FedEx Cup success.

  • This year, Scottie Scheffler rejected direct comparisons to Tiger Woods, saying `It's very silly to be compared to Tiger Woods` despite his five titles and dominant play.
  • Paired with Tiger Woods in the final round of the 2020 Masters, Scheffler credited coach Ted Scott and increased preparation for jump-starting his career and creating more winning chances.
  • He pointed to Woods' late resilience when recalling Augusta National Golf Club, noting Woods birdied five of his final six holes after a 10 on the par-3 12th hole.
  • At East Lake, analysts note that Brandel Chamblee warns Scheffler faces a nearly two-decade 'curse' as FedExCup leaders rarely win there since 2007.
  • After starting strong in recent seasons and regaining his caddie Ted Scott, Scheffler enters the Tour Championship on a streak of 13 top-10 finishes and seeks to build on past near-starts.
