Scottie Scheffler rates his own level after two rounds at the Cadillac Championship

“I felt like I gave myself more looks today than I had yesterday, especially on the back nine. Keep doing that over the course of the next couple days I think I’ll be in a decent spot,“ the world number one said.

*“*Yeah, the only hole I can really think I struggled for par on was maybe the 17th hole.

*“*Outside of that I gave myself a lot of looks. If I hole a few more of those it’s a little bit of a different day. So some good stuff overall.

“Definitely gave myself some more looks (than Thursday), but I don’t know if it was the driving or iron play. I don’t know if I had more opportunities, but I felt like I’m hitting it solid. I felt like I struck it well both days.“

Scheffler will still be hopeful of overtaking Cam Young and winning for the second time on the PGA Tour this season.

However, improvements will definitely be required from the 29-year-old.

Scottie Scheffler’s stats through 36 holes of the Cadillac Championship

Scheffler’s ball-striking has actually been very good, in spite of a few ungainly passes at the golf ball during the first two rounds in Miami.

He is ranked 12th in strokes gained off the tee and eighth in strokes gained approach after 36 holes of the Cadillac Championship.

However, his chipping, pitching and putting haven’t been up to his usual high standards.

The world number one is ranked 40th in strokes gained around the greens and 36th in strokes gained putting.

Scottie Scheffler is ranked tied for sixth in strokes gained total through 36 holes of the Cadillac Championship this week.

He has gained 4.667 strokes combined on the field in all of the main statistical categories.

However, he will definitely need to sharpen up his short game and putting over the course of the weekend if he is to have any chance of winning the tournament.
