Scottie Scheffler capped one of the most dominant seasons in golf history by retaining the Hero World Challenge, cruising to a six-shot victory at Tiger Woods’ invitational event in the Bahamas. His win at the Albany Golf Club marked Scheffler’s ninth title of 2024, giving him a win rate of 43%. The 28-year-old also becomes the first player since Tiger Woods in 2009 to remain the world No. 1 for an entire calendar year, per AP. Scheffler’s season includes gold at the Paris Olympics, victory in the FedEx Cup and the second Masters title of his career. The American, who hadn’t played since winning the Tour Championship on September 1, will next compete in the 2024 edition of “The Match,” where he will partner Rory McIlroy to take on LIV golfers Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka in Las Vegas. “It’s very satisfying,” Scheffler told NBC after winning the Hero World Challenge. “I did a lot of good stuff today on the course, played a really solid round of golf. “I got off to a good start and it feels nice to take a little break and come back and continue to play some pretty solid golf. I’m very pleased with the results of this week.
