Scottie Scheffler and Meredith Scheffler Embraces Parenthood

Scottie Scheffler, the current top-ranked golfer worldwide, is eagerly awaiting a significant milestone: becoming a father. His wife, Meredith Scheffler, is yet to go into labor with their first child, prompting Scottie to opt out of the upcoming Wells Fargo Championship in Charlotte, N.C. Scheduled from May 9-12, the $20 million signature event holds vital importance as the final opportunity for PGA Tour players to fine-tune their game before the PGA Championship in Louisville, Ky. While Scheffler’s absence is notable, he remains the sole eligible player for the limited-field event who plans to sit out.

Throughout the season, Scheffler has consistently dominated when he’s teed up. His exceptional performance includes four victories and a tie for second place in his last five starts. Among his impressive wins are the Arnold Palmer Invitational, The Players Championship, the Masters, and the RBC Heritage, which notably includes three signature events and a major championship, marking the second major victory of his career. Even in his “worst” showing this season, Scheffler managed a commendable tie for 17th at The American Express in La Quinta, Calif.

As anticipation builds for the arrival of their first child, both Scottie and Meredith Scheffler embrace parenthood. Scottie, despite his absence from the Wells Fargo Championship, focuses on preparing for fatherhood alongside his wife, Meredith. Their excitement for the new addition to their family temporarily shifts Scottie’s attention from the fairways to the nursery. Despite this brief hiatus, Scottie’s recent stellar form solidifies his standing as one of the most formidable competitors on the PGA Tour.
