Scottie Scheffler to Defend CJ Cup Byron Nelson Title This Week
Before the poor Sunday last week at Aronimink, it had been over a month of seeing Scottie Scheffler in the mix coming down the stretch. It was the first distinctive tournament this season for the world number one in which the putter was simply ice-cold. He averaged -0.39 strokes gained on the greens and was vocal about his displeasure with the course setup. He gets another defense opportunity this week in Dallas, as he is the only player inside the top 20 in world rank to make the trip. The 29-year-old blew the field away last year with his incredible iron play, but while season-long statistics rank him high across the board, it's evident that there are more issues this time around compared to 2025. Still, he's by far the most talented player in the field and will command a heavy price tag and ownership percentage. It's really a Scheffler vs. the field scenario this week, and there are cases to be made for both.
