Eight-time winner on the PGA TOUR fires final-round 64 for epic one-stroke victory
Aspen, CO – GolfForever, the Official Golf Fitness System of the PGA TOUR and leading at-home golf training system that helps golfers play without limits, congratulates GolfForever investor and Tour Athlete Scottie Scheffler on his historic title defense at THE PLAYERS Championship. The World No. 1 golfer overcame injury and a five-shot deficit with a bogey-free final-round 64 to win by one shot, claim the $4.5 million first prize, and become the first player in the 50-year history of THE PLAYERS to successfully defend his title.
With a resilient and nearly flawless final round to post a 20-under-par finish, Scheffler claimed his eighth career win on the strength of eight birdies and a hole-out eagle on the par-four 4th hole. He led the field in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee (6.429), Strokes Gained: Total (17.126) and Driving Accuracy (80.36%). Scheffler finished the week with 22 birdies and one eagle to two post his second win in as many weeks. He now stands atop the PGA TOUR Money List, FedExCup Playoffs Points List and the Official World Golf Rankings and brings unrivaled momentum into professional golf’s major championship season.
“Scottie Scheffler’s dramatic victory this weekend at THE PLAYERS to become the first ever back-to-back champion is another testament to his unwavering drive and grit to reach a level in competitive golf few players ever have,” says Jon Levy VP, Communications and Strategic Partnerships. “For the past two years, we have been humbled by Scottie’s use of the GolfForever Training System as a key part of his preparation to compete. It’s a great opportunity to remind golfers of all skill levels that the improved range of motion, rotational power and stamina you’ll gain from GolfForever can have a profound and lasting impact on your game.”
Scheffler has been religiously using the GolfForever Swing Trainer at home and on Tour since he began his prodigious run of wins in 2022. Additionally, two-time major winner and 2023 Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson, 12-time PGA TOUR winner Justin Leonard, four-time PGA TOUR winner Ryan Palmer, and three-time PGA TOUR winner Tom Kim comprise the GolfForever team of Tour Athletes that joins over 400 PGA Tour and LPGA Tour players, and thousands of amateur golfers, who use GolfForever daily.
