Shades Of Tiger Woods? Scottie Scheffler Wins Tour Champs For Seventh Victory This Season

World number one Scottie Scheffler crowned his remarkable season by winning the PGA Tour 's season-ending Tour Championship and with it the 25 million FedEx Cup title with a four-stroke win at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta on Sunday.

Scheffler began the final round with a five-stroke lead over Collin Morikawa but saw that advantage cut to just two after back-to-back bogeys on the 7th and 8th but he recovered to secure his seventh win on the PGA Tour this season.

He is the first player to win seven PGA Tour events in a year since Tiger Woods in 2007 and his remarkable season has also included a Masters win and an Olympic gold.

For the past two years, Scheffler had entered the Tour Championship as number one in the rankings but had failed to close out and clinch the FedEx Cup and having led the standings for most of this year he was delighted to get his reward.

Staying in the moment

'I try not to think too much about the past or think too much about the future,' he said.
