The world number 1 has scored a 63, finishing at 31 strokes under normal.
Scheffler equaled the record set by Justin Thomas in 2017, at the Sony omnium, then equaled six years later by Ludvig Aberg, to the classic RSM.
Scheffler was in a position to break the record before a bad approach that led to a bugy at 17e hole. He then registered normal from a sand pit at the last hole. There was a little eight -feet rolled there for a Oiselet.
The 28 -year -old golfer has 14 career victories, including the masters tournament in 2022 and 2024.
Erik Van Rooyen shone with a 63, finishing eight blows from the winner.
Sam Stevens made a 64 to rank third at TPC Craig Ranch, in the suburbs of Dallas.
The best card of the day was signed by Jordan Spieth with a 62, including nine Oiselets.
Texan too, Spieth won 19 places to finish fourth.
