After Almost Disappointing Jay Monahan’s Tour, New Dad Scottie Scheffler Makes a Jaw-Dropping Revelation

The unstoppable Scottie Scheffler‘s dominance on the greens came to a halt when speculation about him taking paternity leave began to surface. Consequently, the #1 golfer decided to take time off and missed the Zurich Classic, the CJ Cup, and the Wells Fargo Championship.

Now, attention turns to the 2024 PGA Championship, but before that, Scottie Scheffler surprised the community once more, leaving them astonished. Recently, during an interview on PGA Tour radio with Gary Williams, Scheffler was asked, “Have you seen Jerry Maguire?” referring to the classic American sports comedy-drama film.

The golfer responded with a brief “Nope.” Following this revelation, Williams expressed surprise, exclaiming, “Oh my gosh!” He later elaborated on the movie, explaining how a character sees himself on the big screen. After the explanation, he attempted to draw parallels between the character and Scheffler, asking, “Do you know how much attention you are getting?”

In response to Williams’ question, the 28-year-old revealed, “Not really sometimes I feel from the fans out on the course which is a good thing when I am out there playing and competing hearing the cheers and is really special.”

While emphasizing the significance of fan support, the pro further disclosed, “But as far as media tension and stuff like that not really just because I do my best so I just kinda stay out of it you know I try to stay in my little world and come here and compete do my best and then go home and live my life.”

Past events and the current clip indicate that the pro prioritizes both his game and family equally. Now, following the birth of his baby, the #1 golfer is prepared to grace the course once more.

Scottie Scheffler returns to the greens

“Up until when the baby comes, I’m going to play this week and then I’ll go home and basically just wait.” stated the golfer when asked about his upcoming appearances. However, he was recently blessed with a baby and is now confirmed to make an appearance on the greens at Valhalla this week.

After consecutive wins at THE PLAYERS Championship, followed by the Masters and the RBC Heritage, Scottie Scheffler seemed to be in peak form. While enthusiasts were anticipating him to continue his winning streak, the pro took a short break, missing out on three PGA Tour events. Now confirmed to play at the PGA Championship, the #1 golfer might once again surprise the community.

Do you think Scottie Scheffler can secure his second consecutive major title, or will the break affect his performance this week?
