Scheffler went from the hill right of the 10th fairway at Spyglass to a front bunker, blasted out some 20 feet and missed his par putt. That was his only bogey, though he was 1 over until lacing the fairway metal to 30 feet for two-putt birdie on the par-5 14th, just as McIlroy on the hole next to him plucked his ball from the cup.

One day after saying his game “sucked,” Viktor Hovland shot 65 on Thursday at Pebble Beach Golf Links to sit one stroke off the lead.
