    For a tournament as indiscriminate as The Open Championship, Xander Schauffele proved that even those for whom victory is expected still can deliver. And man, did he.

    With a bogey-free, 6-under 65 in the final round at Royal Troon – a round he’d say later in his meeting with the media that it was the best he’d ever played – Schauffele emerged with a two-stroke victory from an eclectic mix of contenders. It was the lowest round of the day, also by two shots. He posted 9-under 275 en route to his second victory in a major this year.

    When he broke through with a one-shot title at the PGA Championship in May, he was +2000 to win pre-tournament at BetMGM. For The Open, he was just +1200, which still was only third-shortest behind Scottie Scheffler (+500) and Rory McIlroy (+800). Scheffler finished in a three-way T7, eight swings back of the champ, while McIlroy missed the cut by five.

    With Scheffler winning the Masters and Bryson DeChambeau capturing the title at the U.S. Open, Americans have swept the majors for the first time in 42 years. If Schauffele wasn’t up to the task on Sunday in Scotland, fellow American Billy Horschel was looming to record his first win in a major. The 37-year-old from Florida held outright possession of the lead after three rounds and closed with 3-under 68, including birdies on the last three holes, but he checked up in a two-way T2. He was +20000 to claim the claret jug.

    The veteran alongside Horschel was England’s Justin Rose, who was +15000 to win, same as Open champion Brian Harman ahead of his first win in a major at Royal Liverpool last year. The lefty was +6600 to defend at Royal Troon. He finished T60.

    But it was Schauffele and his historic day that secured the spoils. They include 750 FedExCup points and a tournament-record $3.1 million. He’s also exempt into The Open through his age-55 season of 2049 and the next five editions of the U.S. Open. (His title at the PGA Championship exempts him for life into that major and it already secured exemptions into the next five Masters.)

    Horschel, Rose and Thriston Lawrence (+50000) of South Africa, who placed fourth at Royal Troon, also are exempt into the 2025 Masters per traditional criteria that reserves space for the top-four finishers at each of the other three majors.
