Scottie Scheffler captures 6th tour win this year, 19th for career, at Procore
Scottie Scheffler shot 5-under-par 67 and it was enough for a one-stroke victory in the Procore Championship on Sunday at Napa, California, proving to be a valuable tune-up for the Ryder Cup. Scheffler finished the tournament at 19-under 269, with second- and third- round leader Ben Griffin posting 70 in the final round and ending up at 18 under on Silverado Resort’s North Course. “I’m fortunate to be the winner this week,” Scheffler said. Griffin missed a birdie putt from about 6 feet away on the final hole that would have forced a playoff. “I gave myself a good chance,” Griffin said. “I was trying to make eagle, putt was just a little slower than I expected. I don’t know if I hit my line on the last, but I looked up and it looked like it was breaking pretty good to the left and I tried to play it straighter to right center.” Griffin and Scheffler, who was in the pairing in front of Griffin, were even at 18 under until Scheffler’s bogey on No. 11. Scheffler had birdies on Nos. 12 and 15, while Griffin’s string of nine consecutive pars was broken with a bogey on the par-4 No. 14 and a birdie on the next hole, a par-5. “I was chasing down some pretty talented guys on the leaderboard,” Scheffler said.
