Scottie Scheffler has not excelled this year, but the injury he suffered during the offseason was a clear indication that this great golfer will not start the season in furious style. However, judging by the last round of the Texas Children's Houston Open, the great golfer could find his rhythm again.

Namely, the 28-year-old is currently the leader in this tournament, with a one shot advantage, with a result of 11 under par.
In the interview with the media, Scottie emphasized that he felt great, had a lot of great moves, and ultimately, he was rewarded for his good game.
It felt pretty good. Hit a lot of fairways out there, gave myself a lot of looks. I holed a good amount of putts today, holed a few long ones, which is always nice, - he said, as quoted by Golf Today.
Although he expected it to be difficult due to the weather forecast, Scottie is satisfied after the last round, but he expects to maintain the same rhythm in the sequel and lift the trophy. Players of his caliber are always expected to win and nothing else.

However, a slightly worse form started to create dilemmas as to whether Scheffler could catch the rhythm.
It was a lot different than we thought it was going to be. Today looked like, checking the forecast this morning, it was going to be one of those days where were going to be playing on and off, looking at a few delays out there, but it was nice to be able to get the round in and hopefully it stays clear for the boys in the afternoon as well, -Scottie continued.
Taylor Pendrith and Nico Echavarria:Will they ruin Scheffler's plans?
Scheffler will have to be cautious, given that Taylor Pendrith and Nico Echavarria are breathing behind his neck with 10 under par. Both were impressive from day one, so the question is whether they have the strength and quality to overtake Scheffler.
