Scottie Scheffler continues to dominate the game of golf.
The World No. 1 golfer overcame a shank on the eighth hole in Round 4 of the Tour Championship on Sunday, and had a strong 4-under on the back nine to claim his seventh win of the season at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. With the win Sunday, Scheffler also finished off the season-long quest of winning the FedEx Cup.
Per the PGA Tour on X (formerly Twitter), the former Texas Longhorn is the only player to win The Players Championship, the Masters Tournament and the Tour Championship in the same season. It’s quite the accomplishment for Scheffler, especially when you also add his gold medal won at the 2024 Paris Olympics to that list.
