Sports writing (EFE).- American Scottie Scheffler, number one in the world, gave no room for surprise on the final day of the British Open held this Sunday and lifted his first Claret Jug after imposing his superiority and preventing the comeback of his rivals, who at no time put his victory in trouble. Scheffler conquers his fourth ‘major’ after winning the Masters in Augusta in 2022 and 2024 and the PGA Championship last May at only 29 years old, something that only six players had done until now, and becomes the second in history, along with his compatriot Tiger Woods, to win the British tournament as the ranking leader.
After the final round at Royal Portrush (Northern Ireland), the golfer from New Jersey completed a card of 267 strokes, with -17 under par, ahead of Harris English (-13) and the revelation of the tournament, Chris Gotterup (-12), who showed the hegemony of the American armada in the only major held on European soil.
