Scottie Scheffler gets real about Round 3 struggles at Houston Open 2025: “It’s a funny game sometimes”

Scottie Scheffler said that he felt he hit better despite shooting his worst round of the week at the Texas Children's Houston Open 2025. He mentioned that the greens were the only difference from the second round, as he struggled to read them on Day 3 at Memorial Park.

On Saturday, March 29, Scheffler carded a 1-under 69 in the third round of the Texas Children's Houston Open. He picked up three birdies against two bogeys to finish at 12-under and slip to T3.

During the post-round interview, Scottie Scheffler reflected on his third-round performance. He said he struggled to read a couple of greens but felt his ball striking was better than on Friday when he had fired a 62.

"I felt like I hit it better today than I did yesterday." he said. "It's a funny game sometimes. Yesterday was a day where I felt like I really needed to go to the range and hit some balls and make sure things were feeling the way I needed to, and today I felt like I was striking it a lot better, just a bit off."
