Xander Schauffele won his first major title at the 2024 PGA Championship, held at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. His victory came after an outstanding performance throughout the tournament, finishing with a score of 21 under par. He narrowly defeated Bryson DeChambeau by just one stroke.
Schauffele's path to victory started with a record-breaking first round. He shot a 62, the lowest score ever recorded in a PGA Championship round, tying the all-time lowest round in any major tournament. His incredible first round included nine birdies and no bogeys, giving him an early lead and setting the stage for his success in the following rounds.
By securing the Wanamaker Trophy, Schauffele not only earned his first major title but also solidified his position among the world's elite golfers, silencing his critics along the way (and moving up to #2 in the world).
Schauffele will aim to ride this wave of success into the year's remaining majors, joining the chase to catch the dominant Scottie Scheffler. His breakthrough victory proves he's a serious contender for more major glory.
Speaking of Scottie...
GREAT SCOTT!
Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, faces legal trouble after a bizarre arrest at the PGA Championship involving an alleged altercation with a traffic officer. His arraignment has been postponed to June 3 as the investigation continues.
Despite the incident, Scheffler finished tied for eighth in the tournament. Read more about the ongoing case and its potential implications for the golfing star here.
