Beam me up, Scottie. Or, at the very least, let me try on your green jacket!
World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler made short work of the final three rounds of the 2022 Masters to win his first major on a 10-under (278) finish with a record $2.7 million payout. It was his fourth PGA Tour win this season—all of which have come in the last 57 days—after failing to win the first 70 PGA events of his career.
Tiger Woods came in lower on the leaderboard but his comeback was still considered a success after his major car crash last year.
