Scottie Scheffler on the cusp of breaking a PGA Tour mark Tiger Woods has held for 26 years

Scottie Scheffler is fresh off an eight-shot victory to start the PGA Tour postseason and he goes for another at the BMW Championship at Bellerive.

Scottie Scheffler is close to breaking the PGA Tour record held by Tiger Woods for more than 26 years. Scheffler's recent success, including his 21st PGA Tour victory and earnings exceeding $119 million, has brought him within $1.03 million of surpassing Woods. The BMW Championship could be the key to this achievement, with Scheffler just needing a three-way tie for third to achieve the milestone.

Despite the financial significance, Scheffler says the record doesn't matter much to him, emphasizing the gratitude he feels for Woods' contributions to the game.
