Charlotte, North Carolina ¨C Scottie Scheffler was not at the top of his game but survived a scare from Jon Rahm in the final round to win the PGA Championship by five strokes at Quail Hollow Club on Sunday.
It wasn¡¯t as easy as many expected, but the 28-year-old Scheffler collected his third major title with an even-par 71 that was enough for the Olympic champion to pick up something much bigger than a gold medal ¡ª the huge Wanamaker Trophy.
¡°I¡¯m just really proud of the way we fought this week,¡± Scheffler said. ¡°I was battling my swing the first couple days ... I¡¯m looking forward to celebrating this one.¡±
