CBS Makes Big Announcement Featuring Scottie Scheffler After PGA Championship
The PGA Championship at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina took place over the weekend, and while the leaderboard saw plenty of movement early on, Saturday evening and most of Sunday belonged to Scottie Scheffler.
Scheffler finished the tournament at 11-under par, five strokes ahead of the three runners-up who each finished at 6-under.
With the win, Scheffler secured his third career major and his first PGA Championship title. He now only needs victories at the U.S. Open and the British Open to complete the career Grand Slam—an achievement only six other golfers have accomplished, including Rory McIlroy after his Masters win earlier this year.
Meanwhile, CBS Sports—who broadcasted the tournament—announced some notable viewership statistics. The final round averaged approximately 4.76 million viewers. While that figure was down 4% from Xander Schauffele’s win in 2024, it was up 5% compared to Brooks Koepka’s victory in 2023.
One key reason for the final round’s slightly lower viewership compared to 2024 could simply be that Scottie Scheffler held a commanding lead for most of the day, which reduced the drama heading down the stretch.
Jon Rahm did briefly make things interesting, climbing his way back into contention and even tying Scheffler at 10-under at one point. However, the momentum quickly shifted when Scheffler responded with a birdie, while Rahm found the water on a critical hole and never found his rhythm again, ultimately dropping to 4-under for the tournament.
Bryson DeChambeau also had a chance to set up a competitive Sunday after grabbing the lead on Saturday. But costly mistakes down the stretch, including dropping three shots over two of his final three holes, left him too far back.
Not to mention, when you’re chasing a player like Scheffler—who manages his game and limits mistakes just about as good or better than anyone on tour—that kind of deficit becomes nearly impossible to overcome.
