Scottie Scheffler made history on Sunday with an astonishing comeback victory at The Players Championship.

Scheffler shot an eight-under-par 64 to finish at 20 under par – one ahead of Brian Harman, Xander Schauffele and Wyndham Clark, who saw a putt roll around the cup and not fall as he tried to force a play-off.
