World number one Scottie Scheffler continued his stunning form with a four-shot victory at the Memorial Tournament in Columbus, Ohio.<\/p>\n

The American shot a two-under-par 70 to beat compatriot Ben Griffin, whose challenge faded on the back nine.<\/p>\n

After bogeys on the 12th and 13th, Griffin eagled the 15th and birdied the 16th to move to within a stroke of Scheffler.<\/p>\n

But he double-bogeyed the 17th to ease the pressure on his rival, who went on seal his third win from his previous four tournaments.<\/p>\n

The victory follows his triumph in the PGA Championship in May, Scheffler’s third major win.<\/p>\n

He dropped just one shot in his final round when he bogeyed the 10th hole, but made birdies on the seventh, 11th and 15th. <\/p>\n

Scheffler’s victory makes him just the second player to win the Memorial in consecutive years, following Tiger Woods’ victories in 1999, 2000 and 2001. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
