The surprising stat working against Scottie Scheffler winning a fifth straight PGA Tour Player of the Year Award.
As Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee pointed out on X, the World No. 1 leads the tour in a variety of impressive categories once again. But as Brandel also noted, there's one stat that likely will keep him from claiming the award again. At least, for now. Chamblee notes that no one has ever won PGA Tour POY with only one win:
Scheffler won his first start of 2026 at the American Express in January, but has gone winless since despite racking up five runner-up finishes. Of course, he still has three more chances to change that during the FedEx Cup Playoffs, which he'll likely enter at No. 1 in the standings.
