Scheffler posted a 64 on Friday in the second round of the British Open, which had him just a shot off the course record in Northern Ireland. He left a birdie putt painfully short at the final hole, too. That moved the top-ranked golfer in the world into the solo lead at the midway point of the final major championship of the season.

Researchers at the PGA Tour discovered that Scheffler and Woods each went 1,197 days between winning their first and fourth majors.
