Fresh off a win at the 2024 Memorial Tournament, Scottie Scheffler seeks to gain another Major title at this week's US Open set to be held from June 13 to 16. Scheffler enters the 156-player field as the most favored by fans and pundits alike to take home the winner's share of the $20 million prize purse.
Rory McIlroy, ranked third on the Official World Golf Rankings, is also favored to win this week. When asked by the Calgary Herald on what attribute of Scheffler impresses him the most, the Northern Irishman said:
"Undoubtedly the best player in the world at the minute by a long way. It’s up to us to try to get to his level. Look, a lot of stuff went on in his life, as well. They’ve just had a new child. He’s been through some struggles in his game, particularly the putter that he’s been able to turn around, as well."
"It’s not as if he hasn’t had his challenges along the way, or circumstances have been a little bit different for him. But yeah, I mean, the word that I describe it as is relentless," he added.
Xander Schauffele, winner of the 2024 PGA Championship, also spoke highly of Scheffler at his winner's press conference. Schauffele said (via the Calgary Herald):
"All of us are climbing this massive mountain. At the top of the mountain is Scottie Scheffler. I won this today, but I’m still not that close to Scottie Scheffler.”
Scottie Scheffler will look to win his sixth title of the season at the upcoming US Open.
