Scottie Scheffler cantered to his 2nd Masters victory on Sunday by 4 shots. He went into the 88th Masters as the most tipped favourite since Tiger Woods in 2000. He did go into the last day with just a 1 shot lead but showed his class around the turn making 5 birdies in 7 holes from 8-14.
He was helped a little by the chasing pack all faltering on their way round. The closest competitor was Ludvig Aberg but his challenged ended on the 11th hole when he found the water to the left of the green and went on to make a double bogey 6. He did get those 2 shots back before the end of his round to finish 2nd in his first ever major let alone his first Masters. With Scottie winning so comfortably, it was a great insight to what the future may hold for professional golf.
The question now is how many more wins will Scottie get this year? His last 4 events have been 3 wins and a 2nd place. His wife is about to give birth to their first child very shortly so this will take some of his focus but with the victory seeming so easy at Augusta its going to be hard not seeing Scottie competing at most events he plays this year.
