AUGUSTA, Ga. — You can count on a few certainties every year at Augusta National. The azaleas will be magnificent. The food will be the best deal in sports. And for the foreseeable future, Scottie Scheffler will be stacking up green jackets.
Scheffler won his second green jacket in three years on Sunday, winning by four strokes over Ludvig Åberg in a coronation that wasn’t even that close. A four-man first-nine scuffle turned into a one-man second-nine stroll to victory.
The tournament’s four leaders approaching the turn made for an unlikely quartet: Scheffler, the most dominant golfer on the planet.
