Matt Fitzpatrick leads the way on the PGA Tour this season with three titles, with two-time champion Chris Gotterup the only other multiple winner.
Scheffler finds himself joined by several others on one, with the American star emerging victorious on his first start at The American Express.
And while he hasn’t been able to lift another trophy since then, he does lead the way in a stunning seven key categories on the PGA Tour.

Scottie Scheffler tops seven PGA Tour categories for 2026
Ahead of his latest start at the Cadillac Championship this week, Scheffler most notably topped the Strokes Gained: Total rankings.
But he also found his name at the top of the list for scoring average, birdie average, bogey avoidance, par-4 scoring, Round 3 scoring average and Round 4 scoring average.
It is a truly remarkable list, and one that suggests Scheffler is heading for huge success sooner rather than later.

It will be intriguing to see how he ranks in such areas after this week, with Scheffler making his debut at the Blue Monster Course at Trump National Doral.
