Scottie Scheffler caps dominant Byron Nelson win with record-tying 72-hole score

Scottie Scheffler capped a dominant victory at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson with the lowest 72-hole score in PGA Tour history.

Scheffler fired an 8-under 63 on Sunday at TPC Craig Ranch to finish at 31-under 253, tying the low 72-hole mark, first recorded by Justin Thomas at the 2017 Sony Open and again by Ludvig Aberg at the 2023 RSM Classic.

After going birdie-bogey on Nos. 2 and 3, Scheffler rattled off four straight birdies and then capped his front nine with a 20-foot eagle make at the par-5 ninth. He birdies Nos. 11, 14 and 15, too, all from inside 8 feet to reach 32 under.
