When Scottie Scheffler stood on the 18th green at Augusta National and helped Rory McIlroy into his first green jacket at the 2025 Masters, it appeared as though McIlroy had fully closed the gap on Scheffler at the top of the golf world -- with Bryson DeChambeau right alongside the duo.

The world's best golfer continues to distance himself from the field, winning tournaments weekly and running away in the FedExCup standings.

Woods is a five-time winner at Memorial who won three straight from 1999 through 2001. No one had repeated at Muirfield Village since then until Scheffler. His performances lately look a lot more like Nicklaus the way he wears down the field by rarely getting out of position.
