Scottie Scheffler’s return to form ominous for Masters rivals – Sir Nick Faldo
Scottie Scheffler speaks after winning the Masters golf tournament at Augusta National Golf Club, April 14, 2024, in Augusta, Ga.

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER’S return to form ahead of his Masters title defence is ominous for his rivals, according to three-time winner Sir Nick Faldo.

Scheffler showed visible signs of frustration with his performance as he finished 20th last month in the Players Championship, one of nine titles he won in an incredible 2024 campaign.

Rory McIlroy defeated JJ Spaun in a play-off at Sawgrass to secure his second win of the year and has accumulated 188 world ranking points this season compared to Scheffler’s 72.
