Schauffele is the first player since fellow San Diegan Phil Mickelson in 2005 to birdie the last hole of the PGA Championship to win by one.
Xander Schauffele celebrates after winning the PGA Championship golf tournament at the Valhalla Golf Club, Sunday, May 19, 2024, in Louisville, Ky.
“I just kept telling myself, ‘I need to earn this — earn this and be in the moment.’ And I was able to do that,” Schauffele said. “I don't really remember it lipping in. I just heard everyone roaring and I just looked up to the sky in relief.” Schauffele became the first player since fellow San Diegan Phil Mickelson in 2005 at Baltusrol to win the PGA Championship with a birdie on the last hole to win by one.
Brooks Koepka won the PGA Championship last year and remains the only LIV Golf player to win a major. DeChambeau was close to matching him.
