Meredith and Scottie Scheffler Joyfully Welcome Their Newborn
Louisville—After months of anticipation, Scottie Scheffler welcomed his first child into the world alongside his wife, Meredith. Their son Bennett arrived last week, marking a momentous occasion for the couple.
Reflecting on the experience, Scheffler shared his joy with Golf Channel’s Todd Lewis, expressing how incredible it feels to become a father. He recounted the excitement at home during the lead-up to Bennett’s arrival, emphasizing the special times they shared as a family.
Despite his recent success on the golf course, including winning the Masters and RBC Heritage back-to-back in April, Scheffler prioritized being present for the birth of his child. He returned home to Dallas to await the big moment, only arriving at Valhalla Golf Club for the PGA Championship after Bennett’s birth.
Acknowledging his responsibilities as a professional golfer, Scheffler explained his decision to honor his commitments, recognizing the importance of giving his best effort despite the challenging weather forecast.
During his time at Valhalla, Scheffler connected with fellow golfer Jon Rahm, who offered some light-hearted advice on first-time fatherhood. Rahm, a father of two with a third child on the way, shared a laugh with Scheffler, highlighting the new perspective fatherhood brings.
As Scheffler navigates this exciting chapter of fatherhood, he looks forward to discovering his child’s interests and providing unwavering support. His dedication to family shines through, echoing his sentiments about the profound impact of parenthood.
Congratulations to Scottie and Meredith Scheffler on this joyous milestone!
