A thrilling final round of the 2024 Paris Olympics saw Scottie Scheffler emerge victorious. The American golfer clinched the gold medal in his maiden Olympic appearance, defeating Great Britain's Tommy Fleetwood and Japan's Hideki Matsuyama to take the top spot on the podium.
With all three of the medalists separated by one stroke, Scheffler dominated the course today. The World No. 1 golfer shot an incredible final round score of nine under par 62 to tie Le Golf National's lowest score record. He joined Nicolai Hojgaard, who accomplished the feat in the third round of the tournament.
