Scheffler’s wife Meredith gave birth to son Bennett last week.
Masters champion Scottie Scheffler believes he is “extremely prepared” to challenge for back-to-back major titles in the 106th US PGA Championship after becoming a father for the first time.
With rain forecast on Tuesday and Wednesday, Scheffler was somewhat reluctantly forced to travel to Valhalla on Monday and get in some practice ahead of his bid for a fifth win in his last six starts.“There was a lot of congratulations going around today,” Scheffler said in an interview with the Golf Channel.
“I think as the week goes on I’ll get more immersed in what I am doing and just do my best to stay as present as I can on the golf course and then when I get off it I’ll be calling home as much as possible. “I’m excited to get a couple more days of prep work done and getting on the golf course and looking forward to competing this weekend.
