'Ultimate sign of respect from peers' as 91% of PGA Tour members pick him best player

SCHEFFLER MATCHES WOODS WITH TREBLE

MIAMI - Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler was voted PGA Tour Player of the Year for the third consecutive year, the tour announced on Dec 10, after a campaign in which he captured nine titles worldwide.

The American won his second Masters green jacket, Paris Olympic gold, the PGA's season-ending Tour Championship, the FedEx Cup crown and the Players Championship in 2024 in a trophy haul for the ages.

The 28-year-old claimed the Jack Nicklaus Award with 91 percent of the votes from PGA Tour members who played at least 15 tour events this season, defeating the other finalists Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele.

"Congratulations to Scottie Scheffler on a truly historic season, capped off with his first FedExCup title and today a third consecutive Jack Nicklaus Award as PGA Tour Player of the Year," said PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan.

"Scottie took on challenges from the best players in the world on the biggest stages all season, and being honored as PGA Tour Player of the Year is the ultimate sign of respect from his peers."
