The 28-year-old also added that although even par at Muirfield Village was good, he felt he could’ve done just a little bit better.“I thought I was doing pretty good. Around this golf course even par, I think, today would have been a pretty solid score. Like I said, I felt like I could have gotten a little bit more out of the round, but I felt like I was playing nice and just a couple lips here and there would have changed the score a little bit, but overall, I felt like I was doing good stuff.”Despite Scottie Scheffler’s position at the top of the leaderboard, he expressed some level of uncertainty about maintaining it going into the final round. He stated that due to the course’s challenging nature, “no lead is safe.”Scheffler further revealed that he’ll do his best to "chase down" Ben Griffin, who is currently in second position, one stroke behind him. However, he won’t change his mindset, but will focus on hitting as many good shots as he can in the final round.
