Scheffler, who started the season finale with a five-shot lead over M🙈orikawa, shot a four-under 67 📖to win on 30 under and collect $25million (£19m) of the $100m prize fund.
The world number one mixed💧 an eagle and five birdies with three bogeys to finish four ahead of Morikawa, while a final-round 64 saw Sahith Theegala claim third place.
He a🌳lso became the first player since Tiger Woods in 2007 to win seven events in a PGA Tour season as his dominance continues.
"I try not to think too much about the p🎃ast or think too much about the future, but two years ago was pretty tough, having a goo♊d lead going into the last round and not playing my best and then losing," Scheffler said.
"Then last year, I just had a pretty of🦂f week so it was fairly disappointing. So to come in with a lead for the third time and be able to finish it off is definitely pretty sweet.
"I feel�� like I've lived almost a full lif꧟etime in this one year."
For Morikawa, it was an impre🐼ssive ꩵdisplay but not good enough.
That is despite Morikawa going within two shots of the lead 🌟after taking advantage of Scheffler's successive bogeys on the seventh and eighth holes.
But Scheffler🐷 responded with three birdies in a row to surge four clear, and despite Morikawa responding with a birdie on the 13th, the American knocked🌺 home a 15-foot eagle putt to re-establish his five-shot advantage.
"Nothing fazes him," said Morikawa.
"Whether I was gaining some ground or he was gaining ground, it didn't change how he walked or how he played or how he went t🧜hrough every shot.
"That's something t💙o learn. His mental game is a ꧙lot stronger than a lot of people know."
