US EditionScottie Scheffler Starts a New Season Looking Like Nothing Has Changed. He Wins His PGA Tour Opener
- Yesterday, Scottie Scheffler, the world No. 1, won The American Express at Pete Dye Stadium Course in La Quinta, closing with a 6-under 66 to finish 27-under and earn his 20th PGA Tour win in 151 starts.
- Seven wins in his past 13 starts made Scheffler enter 2026 on a hot run, with six victories in 2025 including two majors and no missed cuts since August 2022.
- Running off four birdies in six holes, Scheffler totaled nine birdies Sunday, hitting a baby 8-iron to 2 feet on No. 4 while a water tee shot on par-3 17th caused a late double bogey.
- After the win, Scheffler will take a week off before finishing the West Coast swing with three straight events starting at the Phoenix Open.
- As the season unfolds, observers note the question may shift to which events Scheffler will not win, reflecting expectations after nine tournaments won by four shots or more.
