The 29-year-old golfer claimed his first championship at the British Open on Sunday and is now one title win away from the elusive career Grand Slam.

With his fourth career major victory, Scheffler is working himself into the conversation as one of the game's all-time greats.

Not since Tiger Woods was in his prime has anyone made the toughest tests in golf look so easy.

Scheffler not only gained strokes on Royal Portrush’s greens—more than 8.5 to be specific—he excelled. He finished four rounds ranked second in the field in SG/putting. While many will recall his dialled iron shots and pin-high approach play, there’s little doubt his improved putting was the difference this time around.

Six-time major winner Phil Mickelson congratulated Scottie Scheffler for emerging victorious in the 2025 British Open on Sunday.

World number one Scottie Scheffler will be overwhelming favourite to claim his first British Open title when he begins his final round with a four-stroke lead of a packed chasing field at Royal Portrush on Sunday.
