Scheffler, Rory, Schauffele get Pinehurst pairing
Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Xander Schauffele will tee off together in the opening round of the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2. The trio is among the favorites to win the championship, and their pairing is sure to attract plenty of attention.
Scheffler is the world’s No. 1-ranked player and has won three PGA Tour events this season, including the Masters Tournament. McIlroy is a four-time major champion and one of the most popular players in the world. Schauffele is a three-time PGA Tour winner and one of the most consistent players on tour.
The three players have a combined 13 PGA Tour wins this season, and they will be looking to add to that total at Pinehurst. The U.S. Open is one of the most challenging tournaments in golf, and the trio will face a tough test this week.
