His seven PGA Tour wins included a second Masters title, and he became the first repeat winner of The Players Championship. He also won the Tour Championship to claim the FedEx Cup. His other four wins were all signature events against the strongest fields — Bay Hill and Memorial, Hilton Head and Hartford.
Schauffele became the first player to win two majors and not be voted player of the year since the award began in 1990. Nick Faldo won the Masters and British Open in 1990, but he was not a PGA Tour member and ineligible for the award.Woods is an 11-time winner of the award, winning five straight times and three straight times .
He was not over par in any round until Saturday at the PGA Championship, the day after he was arrested going into Valhalla as a traffic fatality was being investigated. The charges were dropped a few weeks later, a strange episode in an otherwise spotless season.
