CBS FIRE 🔥 REPORT:The Power 18 golf rankings: Scottie Scheffler goes wire to wire at No. 1, Rory McIlroy drifts late in 2024….. full information below 🔽🔽🔽
The 2024 PGA Tour season began with Scottie Scheffler atop The Power 18 golf rankings, and it ended with the same man occupying the top spot. It was eight months filled with seven trophies (and an Olympic gold medal), rightful comparisons to Tiger Woods and winner’s checks amounting to north of $62 million. Scheffler surged past the world of golf and into a category of his own.
His first FedEx Cup crown at the Tour Championship was the rightful end to a dominant season, and it left us to discern the rest of the competition. Xander Schauffele was the clear-cut No. 2 to Scheffler after coming on midway through the campaign. Not only did Schauffele cross off a couple major championships from his list of goals, his consistency shined. Extending the longest made-cut streak since Woods’ 142, the two-time major champion blended his high floor with a ceiling many had been waiting to see him reach.
There are a few players who may have a claim to the final spot on the podium, including the man who did just that at the Olympics. Hideki Matsuyama collected his 10th PGA Tour victory at the St. Jude Championship in his first start since donning the bronze medal in Paris. Matsuyama is among a group of winners who had great seasons: Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau and Wyndham Clark. Meanwhile, Collin Morikawa fired the lowest score at the Tour Championship yet left without a trophy continuing a theme for his 2024 that others like Ludvig Åberg, Patrick Cantlay, Sungjae Im, Adam Scott and Viktor Hovland all endured.
