Finally, Scottie Scheffler has won on the PGA Tour again.
The top-ranked golfer in the world, after months of finishing short in frustrating fashion, ran away with the FedEx St. Jude Championship. He posted a 4-under 66 in the final round at TPC Southwind in Memphis and ended up taking a massive eight-shot win over the rest of the field to kick off the PGA Tour's postseason. It's his first win since claiming victory at The American Express in January.
The win also earned him a $3.6 million check.
Scheffler entered the week with five runner-up finishes under his belt this season, two of which were losses in playoff holes. Though the 11 top-10 finishes he had racked up are hard to be disappointed about, Scheffler was getting close to completing a one-win season for the first time in years.
But quickly, Scheffler got back to old form and absolutely dominated the field in Memphis. By the time he reached the final stretch, after a birdie at the 13th, Scheffler's lead was up to seven shots. The tournament was over early, and he was back to winning without any doubt whatsoever.
