Scottie Scheffler has confirmed his World #1 ranking with back to back victories at the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village, Dublin, Ohio, joining Tiger Woods (1999-2001) as the only players to successfully defend their title at the Memorial.
It’s been a huge month for Scottie, with wins at the CJ Byron Nelson Cup at the beginning of May, then he won the PGA Championship with ease and now at the Memorial Tournament he earns 16^th career PGA TOUR victory in his 142^nd start at the age of 28 years, 11 months.
He moves to T54 on the all-time wins list, tying five others (Jack Burke, Jr., Ralph Guldahl, Mark O’Meara, Justin Thomas, Tom Weiskopf). Victory also places him in rare air – with fourth shortest span between first and 16^th PGA TOUR wins:

Scheffler finished second in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee (3.933) and Approach the Green (7.263); ranked 34^th in Strokes Gained: Putting (-.058) his lowest position during a victory since the 2024 RBC Heritage (37^th/.029)
The FedExCup leader earns 700 FedExCup points, extending his lead over No. 2 Rory McIlroy to 835 points
Ben Griffin (2^nd/-6) collects third career runner-up finish (2023 Sanderson Farms Championship, 2024 RBC Canadian Open) and third consecutive top-10 finish on TOUR (T8/PGA Championship, Won/Charles Schwab Challenge, 2^nd/the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday); after a first-round 7-under 65, played his next three rounds in a cumulative 1-over at Muirfield Village.
Sepp Straka (3^rd/-5) collects his fifth top-10 finish in 16 starts this season, tying his career-high in a single season on TOUR (2021-22, 2022-23); played the weekend in 8-under after starting 3-over.
36-hole co-leader Nick Taylor (4^th/-4) closed with rounds of 74-73, claiming his third top-10 finish of the season and first since The Genesis Invitational (T9).
The best placed Aussie was Adam Scott (T31/+5), a lazy 15 shots adrift the leader. Min Woo Lee (+10/T49) also made the cut with Cam Davis missing the weekend action.
