McIlroy Admits to Feeling Lost as Scheffler Claims St Jude Championship

Scottie Scheffler delivered a dominant performance to win the St Jude Championship in Memphis and reassert his status as world golf's leading force, while Rory McIlroy endured a torrid week, finishing in 66th place — 25 strokes behind the champion.

McIlroy, who has long been considered the main rival to Scheffler's dominance, acknowledged afterward that he "felt lost" during the tournament. It marks another setback for the Northern Irish star, who has been seeking to rediscover his best form after a mixed stretch of results on the PGA Tour.

Scheffler, by contrast, showed why he remains the world number one, posting consistent scores throughout the tournament and eventually winning comfortably. The American has been the dominant force in men's professional golf over the past two seasons, winning multiple PGA Tour events and a major title.
