Scottie Scheffler has continued to prove why he’s the World No.1 in the 2024 season. The American golfer bagged his fourth victory of the year at the RBC Heritage. He pocketed $3.6 million from the event’s $20 million prize purse at Harbour Town.

He became the first player since Tiger Woods in 2007 to win two major championships back to back in a week. His earlier victory was at The Masters in Augusta National. Sahith Theegala snatched the 2nd spot pocketing $2.18 million and Patrick Cantlay and Wyndham Clark tied for 3rd with $1.18 million.

Scheffler was asked what his plans were as he was going to be a father soon. He replied, “It was part of our plan to come here and play this week” He added that he went back to his wife a couple of times in between and celebrated with her, but he’s also focusing on his game.
