PGA Championship: Scottie Scheffler pulls away from tie with Jon Rahm on back nine to win

Scottie Scheffler issued a stern reminder of who the best player in the world is with a back nine rally at the PGA Championship.

Scheffler began the final round on May 18 with a three-shot lead over Alex Noren, extended it to five, then made two bogeys at Nos. 6 and 9 that allowed Jon Rahm to tie him while standing on the 10th tee at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C.

With barely a shrug, Scheffler birdied three of his next four holes, Rahm bogeyed No. 16 and doubled No.
