Bob MacInytre suffers BMW Championship agony as Scottie Scheffler overhauls Oban hero's four shot deficit
It wasn't to be for the Oban star who had held a four shot lead over Scheffler going into the final day of play in Maryland
Bob MacIntyre was left reeling after Scottie Scheffler overturned a four-shot lead to reign supreme at the BMW Championship.
The Scottish hero had gone into the final day in Maryland with a healthy advantage after a stellar display on Saturday but was simply no watch for the American in the end, who pipped him to the PGA title by two shots.
World number one and three-time major champion Scheffler capped off a fine comeback with an exquisite chip-in on the 17th hole to edge him towards victory at the Caves Valley Golf Club.
The New Jersey star's glory in 2025 is showing no signs of slowing down, adding the BMW title to the PGA Championship and Open Championship crowns lifted by Scheffler earlier this year.
It turned out to be a disappointing final day for MacIntyre who bogeyed his first two holes and wasn't able to register a birdie until the third-last whole.
The 2024 Scottish Open winner shot 73 in total, with Scheffler finishing on a 15-under-par total after a final score of 67.
Maverick McNealy finished third on 11 under.
Elsewhere, Shane Lowry comfortably qualified for the PGA Tour’s season-ending Tour Championship for only the second time in his career while Rory McIlroy bounced back five birdies from the ninth hole for a level-par round of a three under total score of 70.
Speaking after his triumph, Scheffler said: "I think my consistency has a lot to do with the intensity I bring to each round.
" I try not to take days or shots off.
"When it gets to this time of the year it can be a little bit tiring, today was a grind."
