The final round saw Scheffler face pressure from Aberg, who closed the gap to two strokes at one point. However, Scheffler's composure and skill shone through as he secured crucial birdies down the stretch, ultimately sealing his victory with a stellar performance.

Despite challenges from Morikawa, Homa, and Aberg, Scheffler's unwavering focus and precision on the course propelled him to a well-deserved triumph at the Masters, solidifying his status as a force to be reckoned with in the world of golf.
