Tranlate this title Chamblee makes bold US Open prediction for Scheffler: If not him, who else? in spanish

Scottie Scheffler hopes to complete the career Grand Slam at the US Open this year. 

Although significantly more was expected from the American golfer, his form is still satisfactory, with several standout performances.

However, Scottie Scheffler will have to further increase his rhythm in the rest of the season if he really wants to be the main favorite at prestigious tournaments. Scheffler’s statistics are often in his favor, but it is also a fact that the American had problems with his iron and driver game.

Many experts and analysts ask questions about his form, but we are certainly used to Scott Scheffler surprising us when we least expect it.

Brandel Chamblee, a well-known golf expert, commented on Scheffler’s chances at the US Open during the podcast.

Brandel Chamblee, despite Scheffler’s slightly worse form, firmly believes that the American golfer will complete the career Grand Slam. 

Chamblee is aware that Scottie isn’t up to his level, but his consistency is really impressive, noting that Scheffler mostly gets better as the season goes on.

“You know, Scottie’s 29. He’s won 20 times already, and four major championships,“ Chamblee said.

“And he’ll, you know, very likely, at least in my book, complete the career Grand Slam at Shinnecock in a few weeks. If not him, who else?

Scottie in 2025 would beat the hell out of Scottie in 2026, but you’ve still got to pick him.

I mean, the consistency in Scottie Scheffler. I feel like he’s getting better as the year goes on.

The short putting is still an issue. So we’ll see.“

The world of golf is often unpredictable, so it’s really hard to make predictions and claim with certainty that someone will win.

Scottie Scheffler has been showing for years that he is one of the strongest weapons on the PGA Tour and a player who really sets new standards.

Although his form in the last few months has not been top-notch, the 29-year-old has shown countless times that he has the golfing skills, but also that he has the mindset that can really allow him to succeed in this tournament.

Scottie Scheffler’s future

After a great January start at The American Express tournament, he entered a months-long winless streak for several key reasons. Reputable golf analysts have noticed that his signature swing looks unrecognizable, i.e., his backswing is almost half a meter shorter with a too open club face.

This shorter and more cautious swing is seen by experts as a subconscious reaction to the fear of missing, which has undermined his earlier laser-like accuracy on shots.

An additional problem is a clear pattern of poor Thursday tournament openings, which has Scheffler spending his weekends in «recovery mode», expending energy trying to get into the top ten at all instead of dictating the pace from the top.

The golfer himself admitted after the PGA Championship in May that he has issues with 100% focus and mental sharpness when the conditions on the course  change. This is also influenced by the change in life priorities outside the course, given that he now has two small children and less time for long-term training because his family comes first.

Scottie Scheffler talked about the birth of his second child a few weeks ago. He said that it significantly changes his life. 

The 29-year-old points out that in the early stages of his career he had a different focus and more time for practice, while now he has to focus on his children.

«I think so far this year, when you add a second child to the mix, I think that’s a whole different ballgame in terms of home life… I can’t spend as much time at the golf course as I did when I was younger, early in my career, and that’s for a variety of reasons. It’s more important for me to get home in a timely manner now.» he said.

The world number one expects that the continuation of the season will offer him bright moments and does not want to create panic or create pressure around him. Although he is used to being often declared the favorite by the media and the public, creating a lot of pressure, Scottie Scheffler is aware of his qualities and knows how to distance himself from everything.

This is probably the reason why he is so dominant year after year and now he has a good foundation to improve his form and achieve success in the rest of the season. Many times when he was written off, that’s when he knew how to be reborn and do great things. Fans are hoping that the rest of the season will be much brighter for Scottie Scheffler.
