‘I’m not the Player of the Year, no chance’: Top players agree Scottie Scheffler is frontrunner for fifth straight award

At the TOUR Championship in St. Louis, Rory McIlroy openly dismissed any suggestion he could be PGA Tour Player of the Year, stating 'I'm not the Player of the Year, no chance' and pointing to Scottie Scheffler as the clear frontrunner. Scheffler is in contention for a fifth consecutive Player of the Year award. McIlroy had recently witnessed Scheffler's dominant FedEx St. Jude Championship victory, which included a historic putting performance and an eight-shot winning margin.
