Scottie Scheffler Owns the Moment With Response to PGA Tour's Message originally appeared on Athlon Sports. World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler just started his newest campaign to bring home a Claret Jug, which is something that's still missing in his otherwise stacked collection of achievements.

Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1-ranked golfer in the world, is looking for his fourth major win — and first at the British Open. The two-time Masters winner and 2025 PGA Championship winner has yet to claim either of the U.S. Open or The Open Championship, with wins in all four securing an illustrious career Grand Slam.

Scheffler leads another major championship after three rounds. This time, he’s four shots clear at the 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush, where he fired a 4-under 67 Saturday to push to 14 under.

There was a moment in the middle of the afternoon Saturday at Royal Portrush where it still felt like anything was possible at the 2025 Open Championship. All scenarios were still on the table. Hope ran rampant around the property as the third round trundled on and player after player made birdie after birdie.

Scottie Scheffler is more than just lurking now at the 152nd Open Championship, with his stellar play shining in the rain.
