Is Scottie Scheffler playing at the 3M open? Schedule explored

Scottie Scheffler is the top-ranked golfer in the world rankings and the 2024 FedExCup leaderboard. Scheffler will certainly compete in the FedExCup playoff final, The Tour Championship. So, he won't be competing in the 3M Open this week.

3M Open is the second last event on the PGA Tour before the FedExCup playoffs begin. Hence, most golfers competing in the 3M Open this week are the middle or lower-ranked golfers looking to cement their place in the FedExCup playoffs or retain their PGA Tour card for the upcoming season.

Scottie Scheffler competed last week in the 2024 Open Championship and had a decent finish as he remained T7 for the Royal Troon Golf Club event. Scheffler will represent Team USA next week in the 2024 Paris Olympics as the men's golf event begins at Le Golf National on August 1, 2024.

So, mostly, he won't be in the field for the final PGA Tour event, as the Wyndham Championship is just a week after the Olympics event. The World No.1 golfer has more or less confirmed his spot for the Tour Championship. So, Scheffler has the luxury of taking a week off and remaining fresh for the FedExCup playoffs.
