And honestly, guys like Spieth, McIlroy, and Koepka have followed a similar pattern.

Other than Tiger Woods, nobody really wins majors at the rate that Spieth, Rory, and Koepka did for very long. Doesn't mean they are going to completely fall off the map (and those three haven't either even though Spieth is lost right now).
Scheffler obviously is on a hot streak and isn't going to win at this rate forever but he's also a huge talent (more so than Spieth or Koepka, I'd argue) and he's almost certainly not going anywhere for a while.
