Scottie Scheffler’s incredible run of form continued at the RBC Heritage, as he secured another victory to extend his dominance on the PGA Tour. Despite admitting to a lack of preparation following his emotional Masters triumph, Scheffler showed no signs of fatigue or complacency.
He began the final round with a one-shot lead and quickly asserted his authority with a chip-in eagle on the second hole. Scheffler gradually built his lead throughout the day, never relinquishing his advantage. The weather conditions, which brought cold weather and strong winds due to recent storms, posed a challenge, but Scheffler remained unfazed.
Although he missed the 18th green to the right on his final hole, he safely chipped to 18 feet and two-putted for a bogey, ending his streak of 68 consecutive holes with no worse than a par. Nonetheless, his overall performance was nothing short of impressive.
Sahith Theegala finished alone in second place, while Patrick Cantlay and U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark tied for third. Scheffler’s victory marks his 10th PGA Tour title in just 51 tournaments, a testament to his consistent brilliance.
With this win, Scheffler has now won four of his last five starts, with the exception being a runner-up finish at the Houston Open. His dominance is reminiscent of the peak years of Tiger Woods, and his unwavering focus and relentless determination make him a formidable force on the PGA Tour.
Scheffler’s next appearance on the PGA Tour will be at the PGA Championship in the third week of May. However, his absence will likely be met with anticipation, as fans eagerly await his return to the greens.
