World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler just added another legendary chapter to his career, defending his title at the Memorial Tournament and joining Tiger Woods as the only players to achieve this feat! 🏌️♂️ The 28-year-old golf phenom clinched his 16th PGA Tour win with a final-round 70, finishing at 10-under-par 278 in Dublin, Ohio.
Clutch Performance Under Pressure
Scheffler battled fierce competition from Ben Griffin, who finished four strokes back, and Austria's Sepp Straka. 'I battled really hard over the weekend,' Scheffler said, praising Griffin’s late charge. The victory marks his ninth consecutive win when holding a 54-hole lead—talk about ice in his veins! ❄️
Joining the GOATs 🐅
By matching Woods’ Memorial defense record and trailing only legends like Sam Snead and Jack Nicklaus in career-win speed, Scheffler is rewriting golf history. 'Proud to be shaking Mr. Nicklaus’s hand again,' he grinned after securing the trophy. 🏆
US Open Hype Builds
With his third win in a month—including the PGA Championship—Scheffler is now the undisputed favorite for the US Open at Oakmont. Can he grab his fourth major? Young golf fans, mark your calendars! 📅
