Xander Schauffele: 'Rory McIlroy winning the Masters is scary for the rest of us'

"If he's firing on all cylinders… I've played against him when he's done it, and it's not fun for me," Schauffele said about McIlroy.

Xander Schauffele is the world No.3. The Claret Jug and the Wanamaker Trophy are still in his care following wins at the Open Championship and the US PGA last year, and the American finished in a tie for eighth at the Masters just gone on the back of a bad rib injury.

This is one of golf’s brightest stars, but even he sits in the shade next to Rory McIlroy.
