Red-hot Scheffler shooting for hat-trick

Scottie Scheffler apparently isn't one for superstition.

Scheffler was growing out a thick beard while he won the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship in consecutive weeks. But as he arrived at Memorial Park Golf Course for the Texas Children's Houston Open, which begins on Thursday, it was revealed to the golfing world that the beard was shorn.

"It was nice because I didn't have to think about it, but then my beard got so long that it became work," Scheffler said.
