Scottie Scheffler Leads Tour Championship at East Lake

Scottie Scheffler showcased his exceptional skills during the Tour Championship, leading by four strokes after a 5-under 66 in the second round. Although Scheffler, the No. 1 seed in the FedEx Cup, started with a two-shot lead, Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele made impressive efforts to close the gap, with Morikawa scoring an 8-under 63 and Schauffele a 64. Scheffler's strong performance kept him at 21-under par, while Morikawa and Schauffele stood at 17-under and 16-under respectively. The tournament, held at East Lake, has been restructured, and Scheffler aims to secure the $25 million FedEx Cup prize after previously falling short despite being the top seed. As he looks to maintain his lead, the competition remains fierce with Morikawa and Schauffele in pursuit. Weather conditions and course management have contributed to the tournament's scoring ease, contrasting earlier critiques about the greens.
