Schenk landed in the UK on July 19th for the much-awaited major of the season. He was well prepared for the game and his wife and son also accompanied him in the journey. However, after reaching England, he found out that something was messed up, raising his concerns.
Well, the 31-year-old golfer discovered that he had left his golf club behind in the U.S. According to Golf Digest, his wife Kourtney Schenk shared a Twitter post where she raised the concern. Since the American professional golfer had to tee off on Thursday, a day after they reached the country, losing the clubs was nothing less than a nightmare.
Soon after Mrs. Schenk’s post went viral, they received positive news from another PGA Tour golfer’s wife, Malory Conners ( Corey Conners) who came to rescue. In reality, Mrs. Conners found the club’s bag lying there on the airport floor unattended when she arrived in the country in the morning. She messaged Kourtney to let her know about it.
Golf Digest also took to Twitter to share this instance with the caption, “Tour wives stay undefeated. “
