With his fourth career major victory, Scheffler is working himself into the conversation as one of the game's all-time greats.

Lord Byron, who won a record 11 tournaments in a single season, famously gave up golf once he’d made enough money to buy the North Texas ranch he’d always wanted. Nelson had many fine qualities as a golfer, but quality of life remained his ultimate goal. Couldn’t help thinking of Byron last week while listening to Scheffler.

Scottie Scheffler is taking golf to a level not seen since Tiger Woods. The latest example was his four-shot win at the British Open at Royal Portrush on Sunday to earn a fourth major title.
