Abstract In this paper, we will prove that any closed minimal Willmore hypersurface M 4 of S 5 with constant scalar curvature must be isoparametric. To be precise, M 4 is either an equatorial 4 sphere, a product of sphere S 2 ( 2 2 ) × S 2 ( 2 2 ) or a Cartan's minimal hypersurface. In particular, the value of the second fundamental form S can only be 0, 4, 12. This result strongly supports Chern's Conjecture.
