INEVITABLE SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER SUCCEEDS AGAIN
Golfplus Monthly|July 2024
Scott Scheffler Sr. looked over the 18th green, perched 30 yards left on a large hill that frames the stadium-style finishing hole at TPC River Highlands.
INEVITABLE SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER SUCCEEDS AGAIN

Pacing back and forth, he anxiously and eagerly awaited what was about to play out.

His son, Scottie Scheffler, was down below, circling his ball 11 feet from the hole for birdie on the Travelers Championship's first playoff hole. Tom Kim, who 15 minutes earlier birdied the 18th to force a playoff, had just bladed his bunker shot well past the pin and missed the comebacker for par.

Scheffler was 11 feet and two putts between him and his sixth victory of the season.

Scott settled into his ideal viewing spot, nestled between the side of the grandstands and a ShotLink tower. That crevice of viewing area, though, was the lone angle for a group of excitable fans lurking some 20 feet behind Scott to watch the proceedings.

Moments later, the silence broke. The roars reached a crescendo and sustained. Scott knew what that meant. His son had listened.

Scott jumped up, pumped his fist and looked back toward the clubhouse. Scheffler's wife Meredith and their 6-week-old son Bennett were waiting inside until the tournament was sealed. Scott waved them up, then took his first look down the hill as his son hugged caddie Ted Scott. It was over.
