American Scottie Scheffler won his first British Open on Sunday in a dominant fashion, raising the Claret Jug at the 153rd iteration of golf's oldest tournament four strokes ahead of Harris English.

Fans at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland erupted as the 29-year-old Dallas native sank his final putt for par and walked across the green to meet his wife, Meredith, and son, Bennett.

Scheffler went -17 on the day, scoring 68 on the fourth round of the tournament on Sunday and earning a final score of 267. The Champion Golfer of the Year — the title given to the winner of British Open, the oldest of golf's four major championships — defeated American Harris English, who finished 4 shots behind, with a score of 66 on the round.
