Xander Schauffele will recover the faith in his body and will balance at some point, but it is unlikely that such advances will arrive before the end of this year's players championship. A two feet foot lost in the last served as an orderly summary for its season.
Sitting in four during the pair after a third round 77, the world No. 3 and a double winner in 2024 is currently tracking towards its worst end in more than two years.
His mitigation is good, this is only his second beginning since he took a two -month break to recover from a rib injury, but returning to October his series of results makes discordant reading: 41, 30, 40.
When he arrived at the Club house after his third circuit here, he was the last, with the only consolation that the 30 mph winds for the subsequent headlines assured that some names fell below their.
Schuaffele's personnel arrived in 18. Since he had the benefit of the quieter morning conditions, he was already less impressed to be two for his round at that stage, but it was a nightmare to come, after dragging his trip to the Tee water, he was in the Green in four and proceeded to three putt from 14 feet, the last of which was a tiddler.

He had described his 71 on Friday as 'Gross', citing 'Duffed chips and losing every street', but this was a harder experience completely for the open champion.
He said: 'He had never dealt with this before. So I'm happening and I need to solve it. I am not doing a great job of that, so alone (I have to) continue reviewing my drawing board until something pleasant appears.
'At no time at this time, I feel that I need to take my time. Mentally, maybe. But I will probably be quite restless if I have not discovered what is happening, instead of doing nothing.
'Yesterday I had a really pleasant session in the range and clearly did not translate today. I am not sure where it goes wrong, but even before the wind recovered, I thought I was playing quite easy this morning for us.
“We only played the last three or four holes (the worst of the wind), so there was a lot of poor golf before the wind recovered.”
