Scottie Scheffler wins second green jacket with four-shot victory at The Masters
With a final-round 68, world no. 1, Scottie Scheffler kept his composure and successfully clinched his second green jacket, joining the select group of 17 golfers who have earned the title twice in their careers.
Scheffler finished at 11-under-par 277, four strokes ahead of debutant Ludvig Åberg of Sweden, who put forth a battling effort in his Masters debut. Max Homa, Collin Morikawa, and Tommy Fleetwood tied for third at four-under-par.
Bryson DeChambeau and Cameron Smith closed on two-under-par.
Both of Scheffler's Masters victories have come when he was world No. 1. Tiger Woods is the only other player to have won two Green Jackets while holding the top ranking.
“It's hard to put into words how special this is,” Scheffler said. “It's been a long week, a grind of a week. It was a battle. The golf course was so challenging, and to be sitting here wearing this jacket again and getting to take it home is extremely special.”
Capping the week at Augusta National with his third victory in his last four starts, Scheffler's full attention is coming towards becoming a father-to-be.
“I’m coming home,” said the 27-year-old. “I’ll be home as quick as I can. It’s a very special time for both of us. I can’t put into words what it means to win this tournament. I really can’t put into words what it’s going to be like to become a father for the first time.”
