Scottie Scheffler matched the PGA Tour’s 72-hole scoring record on Sunday, finishing at 253 and running away with an eight-shot victory at his hometown CJ Cup Byron Nelson outside Dallas.

The top-ranked player, who closed with a 63 to finish at 31 under par, tied the mark set by Justin Thomas at the 2017 Sony Open and equaled six years later by Ludvig Aberg at the RSM Classic.

Scheffler was in position to break the record before a flubbed chip that led to bogey on the par-3 17th hole and a par from a greenside bunker on the par-5 closing hole. His 8-foot putt for birdie and the record slid by the left side of the hole.

Hideki Matsuyama has the lowest score in relation to par this season, 35 under on the par-73 Plantation Course at Kapalua.

Scheffler tied the 54-hole Nelson record with an eight-shot lead, and nobody got closer than six during the final round. Erik van Rooyen of South Africa matched Scheffler’s 63 to finish at 23 under, three shots ahead of Sam Stevens and four ahead of another hometown favorite, Jordan Spieth.

LPGA Tour

Haeran Ryu made an 8-foot eagle putt during a flawless back nine that allowed her to pull away with an 8-under 64, giving her a five-shot victory at the inaugural Black Desert Championship.

Ryu became the second player to go wire-to-wire on the LPGA Tour this year.

She was coming off a rough finish at the Chevron Championship last week, sharing the 54-hole lead at the first major of the year until closing with a 76.

This one was closer than the five-shot margin indicated. Ryu was clinging to a one-shot lead over Esther Henseleit of Germany going to the back nine. She missed a 6-foot birdie putt on the 10th — her third straight miss from short range for birdie. But then she made a 15-foot birdie putt at the 11th, and her eagle at the 13th put her ahead by four shots.

Henseleit, who started three shots behind, went out in 31 to get within one shot. She cooled on the back nine, not making another birdie until the 18th hole for a 66. She tied for second with Ruoning Yin (67), the final challenge to Ryu.

LIV Golf

Bryson DeChambeau held off a charge from Charles Howell III with birdies on his last two holes for a 6-under 66 for a two-shot victory at LIV Golf Korea in Incheon, his first title since winning the U.S. Open last summer.

Howell, his Crushers teammate, closed with a 63. They were tied until Howell made a bogey on the 16th hole, and DeChambeau rolled in a long birdie putt at the 17th for a two-shot cushion going to the par-5 18th.

DeChambeau finished at 19-under 197 and won $4 million for his first LIV Golf League title since September 2023 and his third overall.

PGA Tour Champions

Stewart Cink made a late birdie for a 4-under 68 that got him into a playoff and then won the Insperity Invitational with a birdie on the first extra hole against Retief Goosen for his first PGA Tour Champions title of the year.

Goosen, who also closed with a 68, made it easy on Cink in the playoff by fanning a 6-iron into the water on the par-4 18th hole.
