By now, you're familiar with the routine. A golf tournament unfolds, culminating after four rounds. Scottie Scheffler proudly holds the winner's trophy for a photo op.

Merely a week after triumphing at the challenging Masters, the top-ranked player in the world showcased his mastery over adverse conditions once again at the stormy RBC Heritage, securing his fourth victory in his last five outings.

Severe thunderstorms occurred in South Carolina, resulting in a delay of two-and-a-half hours during Sunday's golf tournament. As daylight faded, play was halted due to darkness, leaving Scheffler with unfinished business. He had to return to Harbor Town Golf Links the following day to wrap up his final three holes and conclude the tournament.

With a comfortable five-stroke lead, even a closing bogey didn't pose a threat as the American golfer concluded with a three-under-68, ending the tournament at 19-under overall, three shots ahead of compatriot Sahith Theegala.

This victory marks Scheffler's 10th PGA Tour title and ties his career-high fourth win of the season. At 27 years old, Scheffler's consistent success is drawing comparisons to Tiger Woods' dominance during the 2000s, showcasing a level of performance that is both remarkable and reminiscent of an era of golfing excellence.

Since Woods' victory in 2006, no golfer had managed to win a PGA Tour event the week following a major triumph. Moreover, the only previous instance of a golfer following up a win at Augusta National with a victory at Harbor Town dates back to Bernhard Langer in 1985.

“I came here with a purpose. Got off to a slow start but after that played some really nice golf,” Scheffler spoke to the reporters on Monday. “I didn’t show up here just to have some sort of ceremony and have people tell me congratulations.” 

To illustrate his dominance, the gap in world ranking points between Scheffler (629.6) and his closest competitor Rory McIlroy (344.4) is greater than the margin between McIlroy and world No. 784 Woods (4.64). Woods, who has only participated in five competitive events since the beginning of 2023, serves as a point of comparison.

Before Scheffler's accomplishment, only two players had achieved a similar feat in PGA Tour history: Vijay Singh in 2004 and Woods on three separate occasions between 1999 and 2008. These players either won or finished as runners-up in five consecutive PGA Tour events, highlighting the rarity and significance of Scheffler's achievement.

Scheffler still has a considerable distance to cover if he aims to break the PGA Tour record for consecutive wins.

Byron Nelson, a notable golfer from Texas, etched his name in golf history by achieving an extraordinary feat. He secured an astonishing 11 consecutive victories from March to August 1945. Among these wins was a notable triumph at the PGA Championship, one of golf's major tournaments. Nelson's remarkable streak solidified his legendary status in the sport.
