Scottie Scheffler said his first taste of winning the British Open was a ‘special feeling’ after romping to his fourth major title by four shots at Royal Portrush on Sunday.

The World No. 1 shot to the top of the leaderboard during his second round on Friday and never looked back to finish on 17 under par. 

“It’s a pretty special feeling. It was a tough battle, but I played some really good golf and I’m fortunate to be standing here holding the trophy,” Scheffler told Sky Sports.
