There are countless perks to being a PGA Tour winner. Among them are better tee times over the first two rounds.

Scottie Scheffler has had plenty of great weekend tee times, but after winning last week’s Waste Management Phoenix Open, he finally earned the right to sleep in a little later on Thursday.

“I definitely got a different pairing, finally got out of the first-off group, so that was nice,” he said after shooting 5-under 66 to share the early lead at the Genesis Invitational.
