For the first time in his career, Scottie Scheffler was able to lift the Wanamaker trophy.
Scheffler survived a fourth round load by Jon Rahm and kept the golfers Jt Poston and Bryson Dechambeau at a sufficient distance to win the PGA championship on Sunday. Scheffler previously had four ends of the first five in the Major golf and the cut was completely lost in 2022.

After the chaos that occurred in the PGA championship last year, which had it arrested and reserved in jail, Scheffler was able to get the incredible victory. It ended 11 under par.
Scheffler began the five blows behind Jhonattan Vegas Colombian and three blows behind Ryan Gerard. But he played strong in the second round, shooting a 68.
The third round is where he began to take control. While a lot of the best golf stars in the event fell on the road, Scheffler had an eagle in 14 and seven bitdies. He triggered a 65 and was enough to push him to the top of the classification table.
“I am very proud of you,” said his wife, Meredith, her husband as she came to greet her.
He kept the dominant rhythm during the fourth round.
