\u2018Life is good\u2019 for the Schefflers as Scottie collects 20th PGA Tour win to join Jack and Tiger on this historic list<\/a><\/p>\nIt\u2019s often said that numbers don\u2019t tell the true story of a sporting event. In the case of Scheffler\u2019s surgical display in the California desert, however, they very much tell the true story.<\/p>\n
Scheffler was as dominant statistically as he was on the leaderboard. He ranked fourth in strokes gained\/off the tee and third in driving distance. Into the greens he ranked sixth in greens in regulation. On the greens he was first in putts per green in regulation. Forgive him for only being T-13 in scrambling \u2013 he had only 11 tries and converted nine of them.<\/p>\n
In all, Scheffler made 32 birdies (to top the field) with his TaylorMade Spider Tour X X1 putter. The club, which he put into play in 2024, is half an inch longer than his previous one and has an L-Neck hosel and TaylorMade\u2019s True Path alignment aid with a full line sightline on top. The putter has 3 degrees of loft with a lie angle of 72 degrees. The face is an 80\/20 TaylorMade Pure Roll insert, and the grip is a Golf Pride pistol.<\/p>\n
Off the tee Scheffler wielded his 8-degree TaylorMade Qi10 with a Fujikura Ventus Black 7X shaft. Into the greens, Scheffler uses TaylorMade P7TW irons, a muscleback blade model based off Tiger Woods\u2019 irons.<\/p>\n
And now he joins Woods and Nicklaus in some pretty heady company.<\/p>\n
