Woods, Scheffler stand alone in history after Scheffler’s Muirfield victory
@Source: yardbarker.com
Scottie Scheffler is winning at a pace rarely seen in golf. He is winning so much and so often that many are comparing the Dallas, TX native to the GOAT, Tiger Woods (dare I say arguably). This past weekend, Scheffler continued his winning ways at “Jack’s Place” Muirfield Village in the Memorial Tournament for the second consecutive year. He also won his ninth straight tournament with a 54-hole lead. The win over Ben Griffin, in which he shot a 10-under 278, never lost the lead, and was the only player to shoot under par all four days, marked his 16th career victory. Did I mention he also has a gold medal? In the 2024 Memorial event, Scheffler shot an 8-under 280 to defeat Collin Morikawa by one stroke. The victory also placed him in great company. Only Scheffler and Woods have won back-to-back times at the Memorial. Woods still has the edge, however. He managed three wins from 1999 to 2001. In 1999, Tiger finished with 15-under 273. In 2000, he managed an astounding 19-under 269. In 2001, he won by 7 strokes over Paul Azinger with a 17-under 271.
