It has been six months since world number one Scottie Scheffler won a golf tournament. Given he earned 14 victories over the previous two seasons, it is a drought few could have conceived when he triumphed at the American Express Open on 27 January 2026. On Sunday, he was runner-up in Minnesota to PGA Tour rookie Jackson Koivun. Was it mere hyperbole to compare him favourably with Tiger Woods when he was racking up the victories on tour? Or does his consistency suggest the floodgates are about to re-open?
