CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler of the U.S. has won the PGA Championship for his third major title.
Scheffler won by five shots at the competition in Charlotte, North Carolina, that was a nail-biter until the final hour.
Jon Rahm of Spain made a furious charge and tied Scheffler for the lead on the back nine. But then golf’s No. 1 player was mistake-free and left the blunders to everyone else.
Scheffler shot a 71 and picked up the Wanamaker Trophy. The win puts him halfway home to the career Grand Slam and leaves no doubt about his status in the game.
