SUB 60 HEADLINES
Scottie Scheffler opened his 2026 campaign exactly how he ended 2025—winning. The world No. 1 cruised to a four-shot victory at The American Express, firing a 27-under 261 at PGA West in La Quinta to claim his 20th career PGA Tour title.
Only Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods have reached that milestone with four or more majors before age 30. Scheffler also surpassed $100 million in career earnings—joining only Tiger and Rory McIlroy in that exclusive club. He pocketed $1,656,000 for his efforts.
The weekend's breakout star? 18-year-old Blades Brown, who became the youngest player in PGA Tour history to shoot 60 when he torched the Nicklaus Tournament Course on Friday. The recent high school graduate earned a spot in Sunday's final pairing with Scheffler before a final-round 74 dropped him to T18. A star is born.
Stewart Cink kicked off the Champions Tour season with a dominant three-shot win at the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai, going bogey-free Sunday en route to a 23-under total. Fresh off being named 2025 Player of the Year, Cink became the first player since Ángel Cabrera to win back-to-back Champions events.
NEXT ON THE TEE: FARMERS INSURANCE OPEN
The Tour heads to iconic Torrey Pines in San Diego for the final year of the Farmers Insurance Open under its current title sponsor. The cliffside South Course has produced major championship drama (hello, 2008 and 2021 U.S. Opens), and this week's field will look to tame both the North and South layouts. Expect low scoring early before the South Course bites back on the weekend.
