Scottie Scheffler, the world's No. 1 golfer and heavy favorite, struggled at the U.S. Open with only four birdies, finishing at +8. His performance fell short of expectations due to challenges at Pinehurst No. 2, resulting in a T-41 finish, his worst since August last year. Scheffler cited difficulties managing misses on the course, particularly with wiregrass off the fairways affecting his tee shots. Despite high expectations, his disappointing showing led to a ruined $1M parlay and questions about his performance.
