Despite Scottie Scheffler’s dominant PGA season and his recent The Open championship win, he made it clear that Woods remains in a class of his own. “I still think they're a bit silly,” Scheffler told reporters of the G.O.A.T. debates (h/t Normal Sport's Kyler Porter ). “I think Tiger stands alone in the game of golf.”

Scottie Scheffler clinched his fourth major championship, securing a four-stroke victory at Royal Portrush to spark more comparisons to Tiger Woods and close in on the career grand slam

Scottie Scheffler won the Open Championship, matching a Tiger Woods stat that will blow your mind. Just how good is Scheffler?

Scottie Scheffler is not Tiger Woods because nobody will ever be Tiger Woods. Tiger was dominant at a level that the world of professional golf, the world of professional sports, will never see again. We are reaching a point though where the comparisons aren’t exactly silly, though.

Tiger Woods was the most notable, but players like Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Gary Player hold a special place in golf history. It appears that we can add Scottie Scheffler to that list as well.

Scottie Scheffler's steady performance in The Open's Round 3 got Phil Mickelson's caddie, Jim Mackay, to make a bold comparison with Tiger Woods.

This was the stunner: That’s the exact number of days Tiger Woods required to win the first four of his 15 majors, from his first Masters title in 1997 to, yes, taking the Open Championship at St. Andrews in 2000 at age 24.

The top-ranked golfer cruised to another dominant outing to claim the British Open. Scheffler, who entered the day with a massive four-shot lead, pushed it to seven at one point en route to his four-shot victory at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. Nobody even came close to catching him.
