However, the wind didn’t blow as hard as what was forecasted and rain certainly wasn’t as heavy as predicted.
Scheffler burst out of the blocks and was seven-under par after just seven holes of his final round.
However, bogeys on the eighth, 12th and 15th curtailed his progress. He equalled those mistakes out with birdies at 10, 11 and 14 and an eagle on 18.
At the time of writing, he is sitting one shot off the lead after finishing up at 20-under-par at Pebble Beach.
Scottie Scheffler reacts after final round 63 at Pebble Beach
The current world number one showed his class at Pebble Beach during the final round.
After starting the week with a pedestrian round of 72, to end the tournament at 20-under-par was a herculean effort.
After finishing his final round, Scheffler spoke to reporters and
“I had to do something special today to give myself a chance and on the back nine I felt like I needed to get to 21 or 22 under,“ Scheffler said.
“So I was playing really aggressive and a bit more aggressive than I normally am.
“There was a few bogeys on the card, going after pins, but it was a fun day. I knew I needed to post a number and I did a good job fighting all week.
“These are the weeks I’m pretty proud of at the end of the week because I felt like I was battling all week, so to put myself in the clubhouse with maybe a chance is always nice.
“I may end up one or two shots short, but we’ll see what happens.
“The wind is not going to get any easier. I maybe am one or two shots back but I’m definitely not going anywhere, we’ll see what happens with the conditions.“
A final round 63, one that included THREE bogeys, was a quite spectacular effort.
