Scottie Scheffler had a challenging start at the Charles Schwab Challenge, particularly evident at the 11th hole today.
Already struggling at two-over par as he entered the second round, right on the brink of the projected cut line, Scheffler’s attempt at a birdie putt on the 11th sailed past the hole. His frustration was palpable as he flipped his putter into the air and vented about the course conditions, audibly criticizing the greens with a frustrated “Oh screw these greens, man!”—a moment captured by the broadcast and noted by Awful Announcing.
Fans were quick to comment on the scene, with reactions ranging from empathetic to humorous:
“You guys always hear about the things I don’t like in sports. This is one of the things I LOVE about sports. When the best player in the world acts just like you on the course,” commented one viewer.
“Wow. Jail really changes a man,” joked another.
“Watch out! He might get arrested again!” teased a third.
Despite the frustration, Scheffler managed to save par on the hole, but with little margin for error remaining in his play.
At the time of writing, the projected cut line was at one-over par, pressing Scheffler to secure some birdies if he aims to continue competing at the Colonial Country Club over the weekend instead of watching from his hotel room.
On a positive note, videos were released from his incident at the PGA Championship.
