World No. 1 Scheffler claimed The Open title with a final-round 68, finishing 17-under-par to win by four strokes over runner-up Harris English. The 29-year-old notched his second major victory of the year—after winning the PGA Championship in May—and the fourth major title of his career.

Scottie Scheffler is not Tiger Woods because nobody will ever be Tiger Woods. Tiger was dominant at a level that the world of professional golf, the world of professional sports, will never see again. We are reaching a point though where the comparisons aren’t exactly silly, though.

It took Tiger Woods 1,197 days to go from one major win to four major wins. And on Sunday, Scottie Scheffler won his fourth major. The days it took him from his first major to his fourth major: 1,197. But that number, shared by the NBC broadcast crew, certainly emphasizes Scheffler's recent dominance.
