There might be heated rivalry between the two on the course; however, off of it, Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele know how to have fun! After the bout at the Paris Olympics, the two competitors meet again at the St. Jude Championship to win another tournament and race ahead for the PGA Tour Player of the Year accolade. But the rivalry ends on the greens and once off of it, they share a good bond between themselves.

The PGA Tour posted a hilarious video of Scheffler and Schauffele on Instagram. After playing the opening round together at the St. Jude Championship, the world no. 2 crashed the 13-time PGA Tour winner’s press conference. He jokingly asked world no. 2, “What do you think about your playing partner?” Scheffler sarcastically replied, “No comment.”

Then, another reporter asked Scheffler about Schauffele and his two major victories in the 2024 season. The 28-year-old playfully responded with his own one-word question, “Who?” But then he laughed off the entire situation and said, “I find it a little weird that you guys are asking questions about him when he’s literally right there.” Needless to say, Schauffele had taken the pro hat off a bit and just wanted to be another writer at Scheffler’s press conference.

The banter between the two of the best golfers in the world had taken the golf world by a whirlwind, as Scheffler and Schauffele are rarely seen together and such interactions are even more uncommon. The netizens loved the content and wanted more from the two PGA Tour icons.

The golf world loves Scottie Scheffler and Schauffele’s camaraderie 

The two have been paired up for the first and second rounds of the St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind, just a week after they represented the USA at the Olympics together with Wyndham Clark and Collin Morikawa. In the end, Xander Schauffele was unable to defend his gold medal but the glory returned home, with Scottie Scheffler. Alluding to the time they spent together in the French capital, this fan said, “The Olympics always makes athletes closer.” The lighthearted exchange between the two pros made the fan say, “The bromance I didn’t know we needed.”

“Scheffler started his TPC Southwind campaign with a minor outburst at the par-4 13th hole. However, it seems he managed to recover quite well. Just look at the fun interaction with Schauffele and the jovial back and forth left one fan wanting for more, “LOVE this energy from Scottie and Xander! We need MORE of this!” Another complimented the relationship the world #1 and #2 share with each other and added, “I love that duo.”

In recent days, Bryson DeChambeau has been making headlines after crossing 1 million subscribers as he collaborated with 45th POTUS Donald Trump. Right after this, he made another video with one of Trump’s best buds, John Daly. Although these videos have been raking in love from the golf world, this fan recommended a unique idea that they wanted to watch. They said, “Now if they did a YouTube video I would watch.” The fan will have to wait for the two to shoot a YouTube video, as neither of them has channels and does not post. But who knows? Seeing DeChambeau’s success, they may start too.

Whenever the day might come, one thing’s for sure: the fans would love to see more of Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele outside of the competitive grounds. Will the PGA Tour hear the fans’ plea and give more Scheffler-Schauffele content? It remains to be seen.
