Scottie Scheffler, currently ranked as the world’s top golfer, will compete in the 126th US Open beginning Thursday at Shinnecock Hills. A victory would mark a significant milestone in his career, making him the seventh golfer to achieve the prestigious career Grand Slam. The US Open is considered one of golf’s four major championships, alongside the Masters, PGA Championship, and The Open Championship. Scheffler has already won the Masters Tournament, leaving the US Open as the final piece needed for the Slam. The competition will take place in Southampton, New York. This event draws considerable attention as Scheffler attempts to cement his place among golf’s all-time greats.
