The second major championship of the season is off and running.
The golf world has descended on Quail Hollow Club in North Carolina, where the iconic Wanamaker Trophy is up for grabs this week.
Scottie Scheffler, per usual, is the favorite this week. The top-ranked golfer in the world is coming off of a dominant win at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson two weeks ago, which marked his first win of the PGA Tour season. Scheffler showed up to the course wearing orange on Wednesday for a practice round, too, an apparent shout to his infamous arrest during last year’s tournament.
Rory McIlroy is right up there with Scheffler. McIlroy won the Masters in a playoff last month to finally complete the career grand slam and end his 11-year major championship drought. He’s shined at Quail Hollow Club throughout his career, too. He’s won the Wells Fargo Championship there four times in his career.
But, at least early on, neither Scheffler nor McIlroy looked great out at Quail Hollow. McIlroy dropped to 2-over early on his back nine, and he had a double on the front, and Scheffler was hanging around at even par. He offset an eagle with a double right away on his front nine, too. Instead, as everyone predicted, it was Stephan Jaeger who jumped out to the early lead.
