While their partnership began last year, the caddie-player duo has been extremely successful. Furthermore, Scott has been hailed as an experienced caddie, something which seems to be benefitting the young star. The highlight has been his iconic victories, including the Waste Management Phoenix Open. Of course, Scheffler overtaking Jon Rahm as the World No. 1 was the cherry on top. WHO IS SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER’S EXPERIENCED CADDIE? Scheffler and Scott came together in November, starting out with a trial period. They started out with a 63 round at Sea Island, which later turned into a good partnership in 2022. Apart from the Phoenix Open, Scheffler and Scott have won the Arnold Palmer Invitational and the WGC Match Play. While the Phoenix Open was an important win, the Arnold Palmer Invitational ended up confirming a proper elevation in Scheffler’s game. The young PGA Tour icon was winning and seemed like he was going to continue to do so.

Scottie Scheffler is a two-time major champion who plays on the PGA Tour. Born in New Jersey, and raised in Texas, Schefflerâ€™s early interest in golf started at age 3. Although his father introduced him to multiple sports, the 27-year-old stuck with golf. Earning his way through the Korn Ferry Tour, Scottie Scheffler rose to the World No. 1 spot quite early in his career. Here is everything you need to know about the Texas star who has maintained unparalleled dominance in recent years.
<h2><b>Early life of Scottie Scheffler</b></h2>
Scottie Scheffler was born in New Jersey in 1996. However, he spent a part of his early childhood days in New Jersey. However, when his mother got a job there, they moved to Dallas. The 27-year-old is a member of the Royal Oaks Country Club, where his father enlisted him on borrowed money.

At the age of six, he started working with his swing coach, Randy Smith. Smith is still the instructor Scheffler trusts. Young Scheffler, however, played many sports growing up, including basketball, lacrosse, baseball, and football. However, he chose golf as a career, and that has been his dream since early childhood. His dream, however, started courtesy of a plastic golf club he was presented with by his parents.
<h2><b>Schefflerâ€™s professional wins</b></h2>
Scheffler has ten wins so far on the Tour. His maiden victory came at the 2022 WM Phoenix Open, when he defeated Patrick Cantlay in a playoff. He topped that with three more, including the Masters that year. The current world no. 1 golfer has made 102 cuts in the 121 tournaments he has played on the Tour.

Scheffler, though, made his PGA Tour debut as a 17-year-old kid at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, then known as the AT&amp;T Byron Nelson. In his tour debut, Scheffler made a hole-in-one at the 221-yard second hole at the Four Seasons Resort. He settled for a T22 at the event.

A highly decorated college career raised the expectations of the Dallas native. Scheffler, however, exceeded those expectations, showcasing dominance reminiscent of Tiger Woods. In April 2024, Scottie Scheffler became the first golfer since Tiger Woods to win four tournaments in five starts.

Scheffler also shattered multiple records on the PGA Tour in 2024. Scheffler played 39 consecutive rounds at par or better. In 2023, Scheffler became the seventh-lowest average scorer in PGA Tour history. His adjusted score of 68.63 was bettered by only Tiger Woods in six years. Woods holds the record of 67.79; this year, Schefflerâ€™s scoring average is 67.50.

Scheffler is also in the Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy league in terms of amassing ten PGA Tout titles. Woods took 76, and McIlroy took 92 events to reach that career milestone. Scheffler took 119. â€œ<i>In high school, I narrowed it down to just basketball and golf. My whole life, I knew how much I loved golf. It was the one sport I always wanted to be playing, regardless of the season,</i>â€ Scheffler said in 2018 to Golf Digest.
<h2><b>Scottie Scheffler: Net worthÂ </b></h2>
Per Forbes, Scheffler was already sitting on $47.1 million in 2023. His current net worth is north of $80M, especially after victories at the Arnold Palmer Invitational ($4M), THE PLAYERS Championship ($4.5M), the Masters ($3.6M), and the RBC Heritage ($4M). He has already amassed $18,693,235 from ten events played in 2024. The two-time Major champion is eighth on the all-time money list, with $61,258,464 in career earnings from the Tour.

In 2023, Scheffler set the record for earning the most money in a calendar year. The Texas star earned $21,014,342, and it appears he will soon surpass this record. Scheffler is also a Nike athlete. Aside from that, he has ties with NetJets, Rolex, TaylorMade, Titleist, and Vertex Community Bank. Scheffler is represented by Blake Smith of Hambric Sports.
<h2>Schefflers were a family of six</h2>
Schefflerâ€™s parents are Scott and Diane Scheffler. Diane used to work as a COO at a law firm, where she supported the family financially. Scheffler has three sisters, Callie, Molly, and Sara. Callie was looping for Scheffler when he made his PGA Tour debut. She has also looped for her brother countless times before, mostly in USGA tournaments.

Scottie Scheffler married his high school sweetheart, Meredith Scudder, in 2020. Scudder has accompanied his husband on many occasions. Most famously in 2022, when Scheffler earned his first green jacket and the maiden major tournament. They're expecting their firstborn in May 2024.

The 10-time PGA Tour winner famously said that he would leave Augusta National if his wife went into labor. Two years earlier, Scheffler revealed Meredith calmed him down as he was â€˜crying like a babyâ€™ before the final round of the Masters.
<h2><b>Religion plays a big role in Schefflerâ€™s life</b></h2>
Scottie Scheffler is a devout Christian. â€œ<i>The reason why I play golf is Iâ€™m trying to glorify God and all that Heâ€™s done in my life,</i>â€ the PGA Tour Pro said last year from Augusta. The 10-time PGA Tour winner is part of a Bible study group. And, thatâ€™s where he met his caddie, Ted Scott. â€œ<i>I really want to work with a Christian. Thatâ€™s how I try to live my life,</i>â€ Scheffler told Scott while asking the veteran to loop for him.

At this yearâ€™s Masters, Scheffler reiterated his faith in God. â€œ<i>My buddies told me this morning my victory was secure on the cross. And thatâ€™s a pretty special feeling to know that Iâ€™m secure for forever, and it doesnâ€™t matter if I win this tournament or lose this tournament. My identity is secure forever.</i>â€
<h2><b>Scheffler is active in various charity organizations</b></h2>
Schefflerâ€™s friend James Ragan and his brother, Mecklin, started a philanthropic foundation, Triumph Over Kids Cancer. James, however, died of bone cancer just months before the Highland Park sophomore made his PGA Tour debut. A few years later, the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year donated a portion of the $300,000 he pocketed as the winner of the RSM Birdies Fore Love.

He also donated $50,000 to the Northern Texas PGA (NTPGA) Foundation for developmental programs for junior golfers. In 2020, Scheffler also donated $20,000 to West Dallas Community School, $20,000 to Advocates for Community Transformation, $20,000 to Human Impact, and $20,000 to Behind Every Door Ministries. The couple, too, is part of a charity organization, The Scudder Association Foundation.

For Scheffler, Christianity is a guiding principle in his life. Golf is secondary; itâ€™s his job. But family and faith matter more for the pro who canâ€™t stop winning.
