Robert MacIntyre makes a comment on Scottie Scheffler and suggests what he has done is ‘outrageous’

Despite receiving criticism for his form at times this season, Scheffler has put together a really impressive set of results in 2026.

He has one win, five top-five finishes and eight top-25s in eight PGA Tour events to his name so far this year.

And MacIntyre has been truly astounded by the consistency shown by the man from Dallas, Texas.

MacIntyre has hit the nail on the head there.

How Robert MacIntyre can close the gap on Scottie Scheffler

Anyone on the PGA Tour can shoot a 63 or 62 on their day.

However, what makes Scheffler so good is his ability to post a 69 or a 70 when he’s nowhere near his best, while players like MacIntyre may go shoot a 73 or 74 on their off days.

During the course of four-round tournaments, minimizing mistakes is crucial to players’ hopes of winning.

And nobody is better at doing just that than Scottie Scheffler.

When his driving or iron play is off, he makes up for it with his short game, and vice-versa.

He always plays aggressively to conservative targets as well. It is very rare to see Scheffler miss on the short side of greens.

On the rare occasion that he does miss his target, he usually leaves himself a pretty simple up and down.

And that is perhaps the area in which Robert MacIntyre needs to improve if he is ever going to reach Scottie Scheffler’s level.
