Helping both men was the absence of Rory McIlroy, who skipped the Memorial (surprising host Jack Nicklaus) to avoid playing three straight weeks as he's committed to the RBC Canadian Open as his tune up for the U.S. Open in two weeks at Oakmont.

The prize purse for the Memorial Tournament is an impressive $20 million, with the winner receiving $4 million. The second-place finisher will earn $2.2 million, while the third-place finisher will take home $1.4 million.

The top-ranked golfer in the world ran away with yet another tournament on Sudnay afternoon, this time at Muirfield Village. Scheffler carded a final round 70 to take a four-shot win over the field and claim the Memorial Tournament, which marked his third win of the season and third win in his last four starts.
