Scottie Scheffler Triumphs in Dramatic Playoff at Travelers Championship, Secures Sixth PGA Tour Win

Posted : 24 June 2024

Scottie Scheffler claimed his sixth PGA Tour victory of the season at the Travelers Championship after defeating Tom Kim in a playoff. The final round faced a dramatic interruption when climate protestors stormed the 18th green, spraying powder on the putting surface and disrupting play.

 

Despite the delay and near-miss on a decisive birdie putt, Scheffler eventually clinched the title on the first playoff hole with a par, marking a historic achievement as the first player since Arnold Palmer in 1962 to win six times before July.

 

The protest, which led to a brief halt in play, saw the demonstrators detained by police amid chants of support from the crowd. Organizers swiftly adjusted by moving the hole location on the green and cleaning up the residue, ensuring the playoff could proceed smoothly.

 

Reflecting on his victory, Scheffler expressed gratitude for his successful season and praised Kim's competitive spirit. Both golfers finished tied at 22 under par after impressive final rounds, with Scheffler's resilience under pressure securing him another notable triumph in what has been a standout year for the world number one.
