Scheffler became the first man to win two of his first five Masters since Horton Smith won the first and third tournaments ever played.
The only difference between this week and 2022 is that Scheffler has found comfort in being the very best at his craft. “Starting in 2022, I hadn’t won a tournament on tour. I had had a great Ryder Cup but I hadn’t won. All of a sudden, I won Phoenix, the Match Play and Bay Hill and I was ranked No. 1 in the world,’’ he said. “Meredith and I felt our world changing at a rapid pace.’’
Still, it looked like it might be a fight Sunday when there was a four-way tie between Scheffler, Aberg, Max Homa and Collin Morikawa through seven holes. Almost on cue, one by one, the competitors opened the door for Scottie. Morikawa made double bogey at 9, Aberg put one in the drink at 11 for a double bogey and Homa flew the green at 12 for an unplayable lie that turned into a double as well. With just a sliver of an opening, Scheffler’s birdie binge allowed him to coast to victory.
