Rory: Scottie is POY, 'we're all effed' if his putter stays hot

Scottie Scheffler won the FedEx St. Jude Championship on August 16, 2026, at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, strengthening his case for PGA Tour Player of the Year honors. Rory McIlroy has endorsed Scheffler as the clear Player of the Year choice heading into the FedExCup playoffs. McIlroy also warned that if Scheffler's putting remains at its current level, the rest of the tour's players will have little chance of competing against him.
