Weekend winners
Scottie Scheffler. Dude has figured out how to golf his ball. Scheffler steam-rolled TPC Sawgrass Sunday with a 64 to repeat as The Players champion. Is the Masters going to be a cakewalk for him, and moreover, has there been a more dominant player on Tour since Tiger in his heyday than the current version of Scottie?
Bruce Pearl. Man, Pearl was calling ball plays in Nashville, no? His Auburn Tigers made tidy work of a strong SEC field that sent eight teams to the tournament. With the possible exception of Kirby Smart and Dawn Staley, is there anyone else in college sports with the job security Pearl has currently?
Sports fans. This is such a great, great, GREAT sports week. Plus, MLB starts Wednesday morning with Dodgers-Padres in Korea.
