Scottie Scheffler is a man on a mission this week in Atlanta, building a seven-shot lead entering Friday’s second round of the 2024 Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club — he began the week with a two-shot advantage over Xander Schauffele.

It drew a big laugh from Kaufman, Kisner and Burns’ playing partner Wyndham Clark.
