'Uncomfortable' Scottie Scheffler comes up just short yet again

Scottie Scheffler's first PGA Tour victory will have to wait.

The 25-year-old Scheffler, a past PGA Tour Rookie of the Year, recent Ryder Cupper and current 21st-ranked golfer in the world, entered Sunday's final round of the HPE Houston Open with a one-shot lead. However, Scheffler closed in 1-under 69 to fall two shots short of winner Jason Kokrak at Memorial Park.

Scheffler bogeyed his opening hole and added three more bogeys on the back side. Two birdies in his final three holes, though, earned him a share of second with Kevin Tway.

The Texas product now has 10 top-5s on the PGA Tour without a win.
