Scottie Scheffler claimed a commanding victory at the 2025 Open Championship at Royal Portrush. The 29‑year‑old captured the Claret Jug with a final score of 17 under par, finishing four shots ahead of his nearest competitor.

After just two swings in the Sunday’s final round of the British Open, it already seemed close to over. After two holes, it definitely felt over. After four holes, engraver Garry Harvey could start etching the name of Scottie Scheffler into the claret jug, although he waited until near the end of the inevitable conclusion.
