CHARLOTTE - Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler and defending champion Xander Schauffele blasted PGA Championship rules preventing players from cleaning balls that land on the fairway at rain-soaked Quail Hollow on May 15, after struggling through their opening rounds.
In the feature group of the world's three top-ranked players, Scheffler battled to a two-under 69, world No. 3 Schauffele fired a 72 and second-ranked Rory McIlroy shot a 74 in his first Major round after winning April's Masters.
The PGA of America said on May 14 it would not use preferred lies to allow players to lift, clean and place balls despite 12cm of rain dumped on the course in recent days.
