Scheffler earned 2,000 points for winning at the Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Md., sparked by a startling chip-in from 82 feet at the par-3 17th hole. Robert MacIntyre had a four-shot lead through 54 holes but didn't make a birdie until the 16th hole. He still trailed Scheffler by only one shot before Scheffler's chip-in.

Scheffler's victory in the BMW Championship on Aug. 17, in which he rallied from four shots behind Robert MacIntyre to start the day, was his 13th top-10 finish in a row since tying for 20th at The Players Championship. Nine of them have been top-fives.
