Scottie Scheffler underlined his status as the world’s number one golfer with a dominant victory at the season-ending Tour Championship in Atlanta.
It caps a remarkable 2024 for the American who has won an Olympic gold medal, his second Masters and become the first to land successive Players Championship titles.
He is the first player since Tiger Woods in 2007 to win seven events in a PGA Tour season.
Scheffler, who started the final round with a five-shot lead over Collin Morikawa, shot a four-under 67 to win on 30 under and collect $25m (£19m) of the $100m prize fund.
He was four clear of Morikawa, who hit a 66, with another American, Sahith Theegala, in third on 24 under after a 64.
