Scottie Scheffler claims RBC Heritage title, wins for fourth time in last five tournaments

Scottie Scheffler's dominance of the PGA Tour continues.
The reigning Masters champion became the first player since Tiger Woods to win four times in a five-tournament span when he captured the RBC Heritage in a rain-delayed finish.
Scheffler finished off the last three holes of a final-round 68 on Monday morning for a three-shot win over Sahith Theegala at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head Island, S.C.
The victory adds another trophy to Scheffler's amazing start to the season. He previously won the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, followed by the Players Championship. Then last week, the world's No. 1-ranked player added a second Green Jacket with a four-shot victory at Augusta National.
Woods was the last PGA Tour player to win four times in five events when he did it in 2007-08.
Though not to be outdone, Nelly Korda won the LPGA's first major title of the season on Sunday – the Chevron Championship – giving her victories in five consecutive LPGA Tour events.
