Davis Thompson has the lead at the Genesis Invitational thanks to a birdie on the final hole for a 66. He's one shot ahead of Scottie Scheffler.

Scottie Scheffler is still rounding into tournament form. The best are still playing catch-up. Two months ago, Scheffler broke a wine glass making homemade Christmas ravioli and stabbed his palm to the point he needed surgery.

The world No. 1 is a ball-striking savant whose tee-to-green game has rivaled the best versions of Tiger Woods in recent years, but he found another gear the last two days at the relocated Genesis Invitational where that legendary swing took a back seat to a sublime short game.
