Overview

• Scheffler closed with a three-under 68 for a 17-under-par total, finishing four shots clear of runner-up Harris English.
• His first Open triumph marked his fourth major in three years, following Masters wins in 2022 and 2024 and a PGA Championship victory in May.
• He became the first golfer in more than a century to win his opening four major titles by at least three strokes.
• Peers lauded his business-like execution and unshakeable focus under pressure, drawing parallels to Tiger Woods’ dominance at his peak.
• With three legs of the career Grand Slam secured, Scheffler will target next year’s U.S. Open to complete the set.
