Perhaps the biggest compliment to Scottie Scheffler is that it seemed inevitable all along.
Nobody batted an eye when oddsmakers installed him as the 4-1 favorite to win the Masters - the shortest odds at the top of the board for anybody since Tiger Woods in 2013.
The common pre-tournament joke was that Scheffler's wife, Meredith, was the only person who could stop the World No. 1 from claiming a second green jacket. The Schefflers' first child is due in a few weeks, and Scottie was adamant all week that he would leave should she go into labor, regardless of where he stood in the tournament.
