Well, there we have it, Scottie Scheffler is once again The Masters champion after yet another dominant performance in 2024.
Scheffler went into the final day at Augusta National with a one-shot lead and in the end, was never truly threatened.
Small surges from the likes of Max Homa, Ludvig Aberg and Collin Morikawa never materialised to put enough pressure on Scheffler and his calm, focussed final round saw him cruise over the line in the end.
For Scheffler, it’s a second green jacket in the last three years and only cements his place at the top of the world rankings.
Scottie Scheffler will take some moving from world number one
The 27-year-old American is playing some of the best golf seen in years right now and it’s going to take some effort for anyone to move him off that world number one spot.
Of course, that doesn’t mean others won’t try.
And one man who claims to want the world number one spot is European Ryder Cup winner, Robert MacIntyre.
The Scot has taken to social media to sing the praises of Scheffler in his own way after watching him clean up this weekend.
Robert MacIntyre shares concern over Scottie Scheffler’s dominance
Taking to his social media account over on X, the fun-loving MacIntyre went about praising Scheffler in his own unique way.
The Scottish star admitted in his tweet that he too wants the world number one spot. However, he has a bit of a concern given that Scheffler is the same age as him!
Quite whether MacIntyre can get to a level anywhere close to Scottie Scheffler is something we’ll only find out over time.
But right now, there is nobody playing golf anywhere near the level of the American.
Indeed, not since the days of Tiger Woods have we seen dominance from tee to green like it, such is his level of performance.
When the dust settles on this one and the likes of Aberg and Homa miss a couple of missed chances, there’ll also be a realisation that they were just not good enough to reel Scheffler in.
There is a very realistic chance we are looking at someone who could win all four majors this year.
The golfing world, then, could be in for quite the treat in 2024.
