Scottie Scheffler continues to prove himself to be the best golfer the game has seen since Tiger Woods, with the world number one winning six more times in 2025.
Scheffler has had another phenomenal year on the PGA Tour.
The 29-year-old did not finish outside the top eight during his last 15 events of the season, winning both the PGA Championship and The Open Championship.
He is now just a US Open triumph away from completing the Career Grand Slam.
The PGA Tour record set by Patrick Cantlay and Scottie Scheffler
Scottie Scheffler‘s consistency is largely unrivalled on the PGA Tour.
His highest score in a single round this season is 73.
And between the final day of Travelers Championship in June and the end of the Tour Championship, Scheffler managed to put together a run of 21 successive rounds in which he managed to break 70.
That is the joint-longest run since the PGA Tour began to keep track of the statistic in 1987.
Interestingly, it is Patrick Cantlay who set the record back in 2022.
Cantlay’s most recent win on the PGA Tour came that same year – when Scheffler had won just four times in his career.
Cantlay did manage to win two playoff events when the streak began in 2021. That included a victory at East Lake as he became the FedEx Cup champion.
The run would continue until The American Express, the second event of the following season. Cantlay posted a 72 in the third round as he went on to finish the week in ninth place.
Tiger Woods’ best run of consecutive rounds in the 60s on the PGA Tour
It may surprise some that Tiger Woods does not possess the record. In fact, he is tied for ninth, having managed to put 14 sub-70 rounds together.
Woods is actually tied with the likes of Rickie Fowler, Dustin Johnson and Johnson Wagner.
Meanwhile, it is Viktor Hovland who sits third on the list on 19.
But in truth, it would not be a shock to see Scheffler go on and set a new record in the coming years as his momentum does not appear to be stalling anytime soon.
