Race Against Time: Xander Schauffele’s Struggle to Regain Form Ahead of the Masters

In the world of golf, Xander Schauffele’s recent struggle to regain his top form has become a matter of grave concern. Having just returned from a rib injury, his disappointing performance on the green, especially at The Players, has cast a shadow over his once impressive streak of 58 consecutive cuts. With the iconic Masters tournament fast approaching, the question on everyone’s lips is: will Schauffele be able to shake off his struggles and deliver a strong performance?

The Californian golfer, known for his accuracy and exceptional chipping skills, admitted to his game being “really bad, not just very good” and there’s no denying the frustration in his tone. Barely managing to make the cut at The Players with a 1-under-par score, Schauffele has been grappling with his game, and it’s been a rough ride.

The Golf Channel’s Todd Lewis painted a bleak picture, stating, “Xander Schauffele had an absolutely awful weekend. He didn’t particularly have a great week, clearly coming off the injury, clearly not 100%.” His fellow commentator, Ryan Lavner, echoed these sentiments, expressing concern over Schauffele’s struggle to find his footing post-injury.

However, it’s not all gloom and doom for Schauffele. Despite the challenges he’s facing, he’s not one to back down. During a conversation with Rex, Schauffele’s manager provided a glimpse into the golfer’s mindset, disclosing, “Yes, I am [on a ball count]. I’m about to go blow that out of the water right now.” This statement underscores Schauffele’s determination to overcome his limitations and make necessary adjustments to his game.

Lavner lauded Schauffele’s attitude towards his recovery, saying, “I give Xander just so much credit… I felt like Xander put in the effort, put in the time to make sure when he came back, he was 100% or as close as possible to that.” However, he also issued a word of caution: Schauffele’s return to form might take longer than anticipated.

With the countdown to the 2025 Masters already underway, and only 21 days left, Schauffele’s fate remains uncertain. It’s yet to be seen whether he can turn his game around in time for the prestigious event at Augusta National.

Despite his lackluster performance at The PLAYERS Championship, Schauffele didn’t follow the trend of opting out of the Valspar Championship. As the World No. 3, he teed off at the Copperhead Course, determined to get his game back on track. Since his comeback at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, however, he’s been struggling, finishing with a 4-over par and 14 bogies.

“I just need to get more reps,” he confessed during a pre-tournament press conference. “Competition golf is not the same as trying to play golf at home. It’s been a process, and I’m pretty determined to play better.” With the Masters around the corner, Schauffele has a daunting task ahead of him. Yet, his resolve remains unbroken. He’s committed to putting in the work and improving his game, one rep at a time.

The road to recovery is a tightrope walk for Schauffele. Limited practice has left his game rusty, and persistent swing discomfort has affected his rotation and follow-through. Pushing too hard could potentially worsen his situation. Will he be able to make a triumphant comeback at the Masters? Only time will tell.
