Scottie Scheffler has been in sensational form throughout 2025, with caddie Ted Scott benefiting from his success at The Open Championship

The early odds are out for golf's 2026 majors and Scottie Scheffler is the familiar name atop every list of favorites after his Open Championship win.

Scottie Scheffler: He’s spent the last three-and-a-half years as the best player on the planet, but now he’s officially the CHAMPION GOLFER OF THE YEAR for the first time. The World No. 1 won major No. 4 by four shots —and it didn’t feel that close.

Scheffler has been world No. 1 continuously for 113 weeks (he hasn't relinquished the title since May 22, 2023). In total, he has been the greatest of all time for 147 weeks. Big Cat is unrivaled with his 281 consecutive titles (his total is 683). But only Scheffler and Woods have held the title for this long in the modern era.

Texas head coach John Fields now considers Scheffler as the standard for greatness, both on and off the course, and soon Scheffler will give Fields' program a new facility.

Scottie Scheffler won his fourth major at the British Open at age 29 but can he realistically catch Tiger Woods' 15?

A day after Scottie Scheffler won the British Open, the Longhorns men's golf team announced he will fund the renovation of the practice facility.

We’re now at four, steady, undeniable years of golf so much better than any peer. Scheffler is not just the best of his era.

The golf world hasn’t seen a Player of the Year race this captivating in a very long time. Both Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have delivered the kind of seasons that get etched into golf history forever. Yet only one can claim the ultimate individual honor when the dust settles on 2025.
