The 29-year-old began his year with a victory at The American Express. It appeared to be a statement of intent, particularly with Scheffler not quite at his best at La Quinta. However, few would have predicted what would follow.
Johnson Wagner assesses what has gone wrong for Scottie Scheffler in 2026 His results have almost consistently worsened, culminating in Scheffler finishing just outside the top 20 at both the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship . Scheffler has been prickly with the media when speaking about his form. Clearly, his results have been surprising given the standards he set in 2024 and 2025.
And he has not taken too kindly to being asked about the state of his game. Johnson Wagner is not particularly worried about how Scheffler is performing right now. Speaking on CBS Sports following The Players, Wagner insisted that the best player on the planet is building to something special very soon.
