Scottie Scheffler matched the record for the fewest amount of strokes ever at a PGA Tour event as he stormed to an eight-shot victory at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson in Texas.

The world No 1 carded a final-day 63 to finish on -31 for the tournament and eight clear of South Africa’s Erik van Rooyen to claim his first PGA Tour win of the year.

The American might have carded a spectacular 59 if he’d played the final three holes in three-under-par, but a second bogey of the day on the 17th proved a rare blemish in a round which saw him pick up an eagle and eight birdies.

He looked to break the PGA Tour record with a birdie putt on the 18th hole, but it missed and he had to settle for a share of the record.
