Scottie Scheffler said he is not worried about whether he is favourite to win the U.S. Open this weekend.
The penultimate major of the golf calendar gets underway at Oakmont Country Club this weekend and Scheffler is aiming to win his first U.S. Open title.
The number one-ranked golfer is in great form at the moment, winning both the PGA Championship and the Memorial Tournament within the last month.
Scheffler바카라s PGA Championship triumph meant he was just the second player in 100 years to win their first three majors by three shots or more, after Seve Ballesteros in 1983.
He was also the second player to win the Memorial Tournament in consecutive years, following Tiger Woods바카라 victories between 1999 and 2001.
The 28-year-old said he is well-rested and is focused on getting the job done rather than whoever is favourite coming into the event.
"I don't pay attention to the favourite stuff or anything like that," said Scheffler.
"Starting Thursday morning we're at even par and it's up to me to go out there and play against the golf course and see what I can do.
바카라Having the week off was really important for me to get home, get some rest, recover, and I showed up here on Sunday and was able to play maybe 11 holes and really get used to the conditions.
바카라It feels much more like my normal major prep, versus last year where you바카라re coming in from basically a major championship test. Coming into another one is pretty challenging.바카라
