Scottie Scheffler chipped in for a jaw-dropping birdie after a horrific tee shot at the Masters

It looked like Scottie Scheffler’s start to his Masters Sunday with the lead was going to be a rough one.

Cameron Smith was 8-under through two, one shot behind the world’s No. 1 golfer as they started the third hole at Augusta.

And then Scheffler went VERY wide left (as did Smith). His second shot was short of the green and rolled back. It seemed like there was no way he could recover from that, even with Smith’s second rolling right next to his.

And Smith? A bogey put him three back at the time.
