Scottie Scheffler has joined Tiger Woods in an exclusive five-man club after his spectacular results in the 2025 major championships. The World No. 1 golfer is now one of the five players to have a top-ten finish in all four majors in a single season.

Scheffler had a great 2025 season, as he claimed six titles on the PGA Tour. The wins included the PGA Championship as well as The Open Championship. Besides that, he also had a 4th place finish at the Masters Tournament and a T7 finish at the US Open.

With four straight top-ten finishes in majors this season, Scheffler became only the sixth player after Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Tiger Woods, Arnold Palmer, and Gary Player to achieve this. Interestingly, the other five have done it multiple times. Jack Nicklaus was even more phenomenal, as he achieved thirteen straight top tens in the majors from 1973 to 1976.

Here’s a look at the years these five players acheives this feat:

  • Jack Nicklaus: 5 times (’71, ’73, ’74, ’75, ’77)
  • Tom Watson: 3 times (’75, ’77, ’82)
  • Tiger Woods: 2 times (’00, ’05)
  • Arnold Palmer: 2 times (’60, ’66)
  • Gary Player: 2 times (’63, ’74)
  • Scottie Scheffler: 1 times (2025)
