TROON, Scotland -- Another major championship season has come and gone, and this one will be remembered as one that was dominated by American golfers, especially Xander Schauffele.

After waiting seven years to win his first major championship, Schauffele won two -- the PGA Championship and The Open -- in the span of two months. He captured the Claret Jug with a 2-stroke win over Justin Rose and Billy Horschel at Royal Troon Golf Club on Sunday.

Schauffele said he dreamed about winning The Open since he was a teenager in San Diego.
