Does Scottie Scheffler really give a “hard time” to Tom Kim?

Similar to Kim, the current World No. 1 has made significant strides on the PGA TOUR recently. The 27-year-old secured his maiden win at the WM Phoenix Open last year, before taking off in grand style.

Within a span of two months and six events, Scheffler won three more titles, including the prestigious Masters Tournament. The victories sent his ranking aloft, which eventually rested on top of the standings after defending his Phoenix Open early this year.

Therefore, it won’t be wrong to say that Scheffler has been a thorn in every golfer’s aspirations, let alone Kim’s. But the duo, who have an age gap of six years, share an endearing relationship, which could bear more witnesses in the years to come.
