Scottie Scheffler, the reigning world number one golfer, has achieved a monumental career milestone, securing his place among golf’s elite. After the conclusion of the RBC Heritage, Scheffler has officially reached 100 consecutive weeks at the top of the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR), becoming only the third player in history to surpass 135 weeks overall. This remarkable feat puts him in the same league as legends Tiger Woods and Greg Norman, eclipsing Dustin Johnson’s previous record.

Despite this impressive ranking, Scheffler’s 2025 season has not kicked off as he had hoped, lacking a tournament victory thus far. His latest performance at Hilton Head Island saw him tie for eighth place, finishing five strokes behind tournament champion Justin Thomas. While Rory McIlroy, currently ranked second, is on a winning spree, Scheffler remains undeterred, insisting that a win is just around the corner.

In a surprising twist, Scheffler’s post-round press conference was cut short, wrapping up in under 30 seconds with only two questions asked. With a wry smile, he quipped, “Well guys thanks, that was really valuable,” before offering a candid assessment of his week: “I did some good things… just needed a few more shots out there.”

As the golf world watches attentively, Scheffler will skip the upcoming Zurich Classic of New Orleans but intends to return for the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in Dallas on May 1st. The stakes are high, and with each passing tournament, the anticipation builds. Will Scheffler break through and claim his first victory of the year? The golfing community is on edge, waiting for the next chapter in his compelling journey.
