The WM Phoenix Open earned the nicknames of “The People’s Open” and “The Greatest Show on Grass” for a reason, and this year’s event was no different.
A total of 10 players were within three shots of the lead late during Sunday’s final-round action at TPC Scottsdale, but in the end it was Scottie Scheffler who came out on top.
For the 25-year-old Texan it was a matter of when, not if, with regard to his first win on Tour, and it came in dramatic fashion via a three-hole playoff with Ryder Cup teammate Patrick Cantlay. Playing the 18th hole for a fourth time today, Scheffler buried a birdie putt to get up-and-down from a fairway bunker for the win.
