Scottie Scheffler has been named the winner of a third straight Jack Nicklaus Award cementing him as the 2024 PGA Tour Player of the Year. The Tour announced Scheffler's selection on Tuesday as he joins Tiger Woods as the only golfers to claim the honor in three consecutive years.
Scheffler is also just the third golfer to be named Player of the Year three times in his career, joining Woods (11 times) and Rory McIlroy (three). Woods claimed five straight Player of the Year honors from 1999 to 2003 and again won three straight from 2005-07.
Scheffler is the ninth player to win the FedEx Cup and the Player of the Year in the same season since the FedEx Cup era began in 2007.
