PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland -- Scottie Scheffler stood in the middle of the 18th fairway and glanced toward the green. As he waited for the group in front of him to finish, behind the grandstands a giant cloud sporting a frightening shade of gray loomed. A hole earlier, Scheffler had been washed by sunlight and framed by a rainbow. Now, the sun was gone and it looked like more rain could be coming.
It was that kind of day in Northern Ireland.
"When we were teeing off, depending on what weather forecast you looked at, it was going to tell you something different," Scheffler said.
