Scottie Scheffler reveals painful battle with viral illness: What happened?

Scottie Scheffler revealed he battled hand, foot and mouth disease during the BMW Championship, where blisters on his hands made it painful to grip a golf club. Despite admitting he probably should have withdrawn, Scheffler pushed through to finish tied for 12th, citing his reluctance to quit mid-tournament. He now turns his attention to the season-ending Tour Championship at East Lake, hoping his health clears up in time to chase a second FedExCup title after a dominant win the week before he fell ill.
