The world’s top-ranked golfer ran away from the rest of the field on Sunday afternoon to win the Masters by four strokes. Scheffler posted a final-round 68 at Augusta National, which marked his ninth career win on Tour and the second Masters win of his career.
Scheffler started the day with just a one shot lead over the rest of the field. There was a four-way tie for the lead at one point early on, too, as Collin Morikawa, Max Homa and Masters rookie Ludvig Aberg caught up to him right around the turn.
That, though, is when Scheffler took off. He rattled off three straight birdies as he made the turn, including a near-eagle at the ninth, to suddenly jump back up ahead. Slowly, the other three started to slip, too. Morikawa, Aberg and Homa all carded a double on their first few holes of the back nine. Even as Scheffler made a bogey at the 11th, he still entered the 12th hole with a three-shot lead.
Scheffler then made three birdies in a four hole stretch later on his back nine before cruising to his dominant win.
Aberg finished alone in second at 7-under on the week after his 3-under 69 on Saturday. Morikawa, who started just a shot back from Scheffler, bogeyed the last to drop to 4-under on the week. He finished in a tie for third with Tommy Fleetwood and Homa, who recorded his best finish at a major.
Though he was well out of contention, Tiger Woods finished his first true tournament in over a year on Sunday afternoon. Woods went 5-over on Sunday and dropped to 16-over on the week, which is the highest score among those who made the cut and the worst final score of his professional career. Sunday was his 100th competitive round at Augusta National.

Scottie Scheffler bogeyed the 11th, so he's back to 8-under. That's a one shot lead for the time being, but Homa is still working up at the 12th.

Max Homa just hit his tee shot into the bushes above the green at 12. They're searching for his ball now without much luck. Scheffler's lead could grow even more here.
Ryan Young
Morikawa just hooked one bad into the water at 11. A total collapse, and he's almost certainly out of it now too.
From my story earlier this week on the toughest shots at Augusta National. Keegan Bradley called the second shot into 11 "the hardest shot in the world." https://t.co/cFhzGWT7xJpic.twitter.com/ROVKpT9a8N
couldn’t really decide as neither are perfect; feel like the one above matches more on meaning while the one below is more visually alike. if anyone knows of artwork of a man shaking hands with a tree though, let me know pic.twitter.com/7NrAdX6Csr
Ludvig Aberg is playing in his first ever major championship this week at Augusta National.
He's currently ranked No. 9 in the world
He has 1 PGA Tour win (2023 RSM Classic)
He has 1 DP World Tour win (2023 Omega European Masters)
He has five top-20 finishes on Tour this season, including a runner-up finish at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and an eighth place finish at The Players.

Since he's now got a share of the lead...
Ludvig Aberg is now tied for the lead.
Since 1900, three players have won in their major championship debut, but nobody has done it at #TheMasters
Ludvig Aberg is just a shot back from Scottie Scheffler now after his second birdie of the day. The 24-year-old seems completely unbothered by everything going on around him right now.
Ludvig looks awfully similar to a robot given this is his first-ever major championship. Swing, find ball, swing again, repeat.
