Scheffler’s Sensational Start: Watch His Jaw-Dropping Eagle at 2024 PGA Championship
In a breathtaking return to competitive golf, Scottie Scheffler stunned spectators and competitors alike with a jaw-dropping display of skill at the 2024 PGA Championship. After a month-long hiatus following the birth of his first child, Scheffler wasted no time in reminding the world why he’s ranked as the top player globally.

His opening sequence set the tone for a remarkable round:
Shot 1: A majestic drive, soaring 323 yards to the center of the fairway.
Shot 2: A precision strike with a 9 iron, covering 167 yards and finding the bottom of the cup in one fell swoop.
The crowd erupted as Scheffler holing out from the middle of the fairway, catapulting himself to 2 under par and into contention within the top 20. With his sights set on securing his second major championship of the season and third of his career, Scheffler’s electrifying performance on the first hole left no doubt about his intentions.
However, Scheffler’s sensational start paled in comparison to Xander Schauffele’s blistering pace-setting round. Schauffele, setting a new PGA Championship scoring record, stormed through Valhalla Golf Club with an astonishing 9-under 62. Last year, Schauffele had already showcased his scoring prowess by tying a U.S. Open record with a first-round 62. If Scheffler maintains his momentum and continues to deliver shots like his opening eagle, a thrilling showdown at the top of the leaderboard seems inevitable.
Don’t miss out on the exhilarating action as Scheffler and Schauffele lead the charge at the 2024 PGA Championship. With every stroke, history is in the making, promising a spectacle that golf enthusiasts won’t soon forget.
