BMW Championship winner

Scottie Scheffler storms back to win the BMW Championship, boosting his bid for a repeat FedExCup title.

Scheffler seals BMW comeback as Woods comparison sharpens

SCOTTSDALE? No, OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Scottie Scheffler erased a four-shot deficit in five holes and closed with a 3-under 67 to win the BMW Championship at Caves Valley, finishing 15-under 265. It was his fifth PGA Tour victory this season, and it left him as the latest in a line of players challenging Tiger Woods’ dominance in this era. His defining moment came on the par-3 seventeenth, when he chipped in from about 82 feet for birdie to seize control and pull away from Robert MacIntyre, who made a late push but could not sustain it.

Scheffler’s comeback underscores a season built on steady aggression and late mastery. The Woods comparison is less about style and more about the imprint of consistent results; five wins in a single year marks a historic pace for today’s game. Yet the round also exposes the fragile edge in golf: small misses on short putts and a high-wire chip can decide a title. MacIntyre’s duel shows how quickly a match tightens when a leader falters, reminding fans that even the best must stay sharp on every shot.

Highlights

The road to the FedExCup remains open, and Scheffler’s form keeps expectations high for what lies ahead.
