Scheffler opens Colonial with eagle, trails rookie Pak by five

  • At the Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas, rookie John Pak shot a 63 to lead by three strokes, while Scottie Scheffler opened with a 2-under 68.
  • Pak, a 26-year-old from New Jersey and a die-hard Knicks fan, found extra motivation after the Knicks lost Game 1 of the NBA Eastern Conference finals 138-135 following a blown 14-point lead.
  • Nine players, including J.J. Spaun ranked 27th, stood three shots behind Pak, while Scheffler led a group of 15 players five strokes back after scoring 68.
  • Scheffler noted that despite struggling to keep his shots on the fairway at a course that demands accuracy, he still managed to achieve a respectable score. He added that scoring below par in these challenging conditions is a solid performance.
  • Pak assumes the first-round lead as Scheffler aims for a third consecutive victory after his recent PGA Championship win, suggesting a competitive tournament ahead at a course famed for Ben Hogan's legacy.
