Scheffler fires 60 to take Travelers Championship lead

Scottie Scheffler shot a 10-under-par 60 to seize the lead after the second round of the PGA Tour's Travelers Championship on June 21, 2024. This remarkable performance placed him one stroke ahead of playing partner Xander Schauffele and two strokes clear of third-place finisher Tom Kim. Scheffler's round included 10 birdies and an eagle, with his only blemish being a bogey on the par-4 14th hole. He achieved this score on a course that had previously been considered a difficult challenge, with only a few players breaking 65 in the opening rounds. The 60 tied the course record at TPC River Highlands, a mark previously held by Jim Furyk since 2016. Scheffler's current form is exceptional, having won five of his last eight PGA Tour starts, including the Masters Tournament in April. His dominance this season has seen him ranked world number one for an extended period.
