Let’s dwell on 2026 because it was stupid. He won the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the Players Championship, the Masters, and the RBC Heritage all in a two-month stretch. That’s four of the biggest non-major events plus a major, all before June. He also threw in the Memorial Tournament in June for good measure. That’s a "jackpot" of events that usually define a career, and he did it in a spring bloom. The Memorial is Jack Nicklaus’s event, and Jack was probably tweaking his own back just watching Scottie swing.

The Olympic Gold is a Tournament
Oh, and he won the Olympic gold medal in 2026. That’s not technically a PGA Tour event, but it’s a tournament, and he won it by one shot over a charging Tom Kim. He did it at Le Golf National, which is a French course that eats golfers for breakfast and spits out their scorecards. Scottie just smiled, birdied the last hole, and made America proud while probably thinking about his dinner reservation. Surprising fact: he’s the first golfer to win the Masters, the Players, and an Olympic gold medal in the same year. That’s a triple that even your aunt on Facebook has heard of.
