SUB 60 HEADLINES

Scottie Scheffler dominated from start to finish at his hometown event, tying the PGA Tour's 72-hole scoring record en route to an eight-shot victory at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson outside Dallas.

The world No. 1 opened with a blistering 61 and never looked back, maintaining his substantial lead throughout the weekend after weather delays interrupted the second round.

This was Scheffler's first win of 2025 despite numerous top-10 finishes, including a fourth at the Masters in his title defense. His record-tying performance thrilled the hometown crowds and further cemented his status as the game's most dominant player, bringing his career total PGA Tour victories to 14.

DECHAMBEAU PREVAILS IN KOREA

Bryson DeChambeau finally converted a 36-hole lead into a victory, winning LIV Golf Korea for his first win since the 2024 U.S. Open and third LIV victory overall. He finished at 19-under and won by two shots over Crushers GC teammate Charles Howell III, who made a spectacular Sunday charge with a final-round 63.

After several near misses in recent tournaments, including leading at LIV Miami, LIV Mexico City, and briefly at the Masters, DeChambeau had six birdies on the back nine, including a crucial 48-foot putt on the 17th hole to secure the win. His Crushers GC also won the team competition.

PGA CHAMPIONSHIP LOOMS

With his convincing victory at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson, Scheffler now heads to the next Signature Event, the Truist Championship (formerly the Wells Fargo Championship), with momentum.

This year's edition has moved to the Philadelphia Cricket Club's Wissahickon Course due to Quail Hollow hosting the PGA Championship the following week.

The season's second major returns to Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina, from May 12-18, where both Scheffler and DeChambeau will enter as top contenders alongside Rory McIlroy.
