Scheffler's first ace came on his PGA Tour debut at the Byron Nelson as a 17-year-old amateur when he had his sister on the bag:

Scheffler started the final round of the Charles Schwab Challenge well off the pace at six strokes behind.
The ace moved him to 3-under par for his round and to within five shots behind the lead.
He then edged another shot closer when draining his longest putt of the week at the 10th:

But the birdies would dry up coming home and Scheffler would fall short in his bid for a third title of the season.
Scheffler would go on to bogey the 16th and card a 3-under 67 to finish the week on 7-under par.
It proved to be a remarkably frustrating week on the greens at Colonial for Scheffler, who lost an incredible five strokes to the field in SG: Putting.
"I felt like I was putting towards a moving cup," said Scheffler.

Cold putting has very much been the story of the season for Scheffler, who to his credit has still managed to win twice this year.
Those wins came with a successful title defence at the Phoenix Open in February and a first Players Championship victory in March.
English made his ace on the same hole during the second round.
