    Storylines

    • Scottie Scheffler seeks third consecutive Memorial Tournament title, matching Steve Stricker’s repeat streak record. Brandt Snedeker returns to Muirfield Village with +0.6 strokes gained putting, elite form on precision-demanding greens. Wyndham Clark’s pair of final-round 60s ranks him among tour’s rarest clutch performers in back-nine situations.
