Dominant. Historic. Tiger-like. There are plenty of ways to describe the incredible season Scottie Scheffler had in 2024. There are also plenty of ways to divide up all that happened to the World No. 1 over the past 12 months.

So as is tradition the past few years here at Golf Digest, we’ve selected one golfer—in this case, Scheffler—to go extra deep on by listing a bunch of things that happened to him. Emphasis on a bunch. And this is the first time that one of those lists includes being handcuffed. So without further ado, here are 55 things that happened to Scottie Scheffler in 2024.
