Scheffler looked more rattled by the unpredictability of the gusting and swirling wind conditions that wreaked havoc on the third round on Saturday than he did when he was arrested on his way to the second round of the PGA Championship last year in Louisville.

J.J. Spaun watched his 25-foot putt swirl 360 degrees around the cup and drop for par, a fitting end to a wild, windy, round-wrecking Saturday at The Players Championship that gave him a one-shot lead going into the final round of the richest tournament in golf.
