A Scott Sinclair hat-trick fired Celtic to their 48th Scottish title with a 5-0 thrashing of Hearts on Monday morning.
Brendan Rodgers' side needed to beat Hearts to become champions after Aberdeen delayed the title win by beating Dundee on Friday.
Sinclair completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot late on as Celtic won the second part of a potential treble, with a Scottish Cup semi-final against Rangers to come on 23 April.
"We've won the League Cup as well and we need to push on and try to get the Scottish Cup and keep the unbeaten run going as long as we can".
"So overwhelming has Celtic's domestic dominance been that [manager] Brendan Rodgers was nearly blushing as he celebrated afterwards with his players", says Keith Jackson of the Daily Record.
There were no wholesale changes to the squad inherited by Rodgers from Ronny Deila.
Sinclair had put Celtic two goals to the good with a quickfire brace within the first half-an-hour, combing well with Patrick Roberts on both occasions.
