Xander Schauffele has only one Masters appearance under his belt, but the 25-year-old former San Diego State University golfer has proven that he’s going to be a guy to watch.
Schauffele has two wins this season, the WGC-HSBC Champions and Tournament of Champions. Both of those wins were against solid fields. His other two wins were in 2017 at the Greenbrier Classic and TOUR Championship. That’s four wins in his short three-year full-time PGA Tour career.
In seven major appearances, he’s finished in the top five twice (T2 at the 2018 Open Championship and T5 at the 2017 U.S. Open) and in the top 10 another time (T6 at the 2018 U.S. Open). He is currently ranked fourth on the Tour in strokes gained total.
