Golf has been secondary for Scheffler
Scottie Scheffler’s son Bennett turns 2 next month, and Remy was born less than two weeks ago. Neither is old enough to understand the significance of Augusta National, the Masters and the green jacket their father sometimes wears.
“(His wife Meredith) got this great picture of me and Bennett walking into the clubhouse with me with my green jacket and holding his hand. But, I mean, he has no idea what it means,” Scheffler said.
“This place signifies so much for me in my golf journey, and that’s something I’d love to be able to share with my kids. We’ll see how that goes as they age. “Right now, I just — if I’m wearing it near him, I’m just hoping he doesn’t ruin it or anything like that.”
Scheffler has two kids — one for each of his Master’s titles. He’s the favorite in this week’s tournament, as he tends to be for all majors these days, but his family life has been more exciting than his golf recently.
The Scheffler who tore through the 2025 season, winning six times in a 4 1/2-month span, hasn’t arrived yet this year. It was business as usual when Scheffler won his first tournament of the year at The American Express in January.
