Scheffler: Tiger Woods' Consistency Is My Golfing Goal

Scottie Scheffler, who has maintained the World No.1 ranking for an impressive 132 consecutive weeks, has drawn comparisons to golf legend Tiger Woods. Scheffler himself acknowledges Woods' influence, stating he admires the latter's relentless pursuit of improvement and his ability 'to never be complacent or satisfied' with his game. This echoes Woods' own consistent dominance, where he rarely relinquished the top spot.

Tiger Woods has reciprocated the praise, lauding Scheffler's 'incredible consistency' and 'strategic' play. Woods noted Scheffler's ability to consistently perform at a high level, particularly in 'beating the best fields' and not having 'lapses in a round.' He also described Scheffler as 'one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet,' highlighting his character off the course.

These mutual accolades come as Scheffler competes in the Hero World Challenge, an event he has won decisively in recent years. The conversation underscores Scheffler's current remarkable form and his aspirations to reach the legendary status achieved by Woods, who remains an enduring inspiration in the world of golf.
