MIAMI – World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler said staying patient was key, as he fired a five-under 67 to join a six-way tie for the lead at the halfway stage of the PGA Tour’s Arnold Palmer Invitational on March 8.

The 2022 Masters champion could have taken sole possession of the lead at Bay Hill but missed a 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th green. Nevertheless, his 67 was good enough to vault him alongside Shane Lowry (71), Hideki Matsuyama (70), Russell Henley (69), Brian Harman (68), and Wyndham Clark (66) at the top of the leaderboard on seven under.
