PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. - All who wander up and down the leaderboard are not lost.

Scottie Scheffler has delivered an erratic season, at least by the high standards set by the world's No. 1-ranked player, and it continues to be on display at The Players Championship.

Scheffler barely made the cut Friday then looked more like himself with a 5-under-par 67 in Saturday's third round after a driving range session following an erratic second round. Post-round cram sessions have become the norm.

A determined hard worker, Scheffler was asked if he unlocked something on the range late Friday.

"Did I find anything? I think that would imply that I was lost, which is not the case," Scheffler said. "No, I think I'm always just trying to get a feel for where things are at, and sometimes a little practice helps, and sometimes a little rest helps."

Part of Scheffler's winning DNA is that he never admits to defeat, on or off the course. So, can he rally in yet another tournament when he barely made the cut? It has been a theme since he won the American Express in the California desert last month.
