Scottie Scheffler joined Tiger Woods in the record books with a stunning victory at the 2024 Masters.
World No. 1 Scheffler held off a charge from European Ryder Cup star Ludvig Aberg to win by four shots at 11 under par.
Challenges from Collin Morikawa and Max Homa faded at Amen Corner, as fellow American Scheffler showed why he is comfortably the best golfer in the world.
The unstoppable 27-year-old earns a second green jacket in three years and a third victory in his last four starts.
One of those victories came at the Players’ Championship – golf’s fifth unofficial major – and Scheffler becomes only the second player in history to win at TPC Sawgrass and Augusta in the same season, alongside by Woods.
Scheffler, who is expecting his first child with his wife Meredith in a few weeks, can post a truly historic season if this dominance continues.
Aberg, meanwhile, was denied a piece of history at the iconic golf course.
The Swede, who only became professional in June 2023, was trying to become the first player to win the Masters on his first appearance in a major championship.
