PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Already the best in the world, Scottie Scheffler added another layer to his legend Sunday. He became the first player to win back-to-back in 50 years of The Players Championship by matching the biggest comeback and the lowest closing round by a winner.
Clark had the last shot, a putt just inside 18 feet that dipped into the cup on the left side and came out on the right side, leaving him stunned as he placed his hand over his mouth. “It’s tough enough to win one Players,” Scheffler said. “So to have it back-to-back is extremely special. Yeah, really thankful.”
Corey Conners of Listowel, Ont., was the top Canadian, finishing tied for 13th at 11 under. Mackenzie Hughes of Hamilton, Ont., and Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., tied for 26th at 8 under.
