It all starts tomorrow powers Scheffler’s rally.
Scottie Scheffler Sends Four-Word Message Before Tee Off at Open Championship originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Scottie Scheffler offered a rare glimpse into the emotional undercurrents driving his game at Royal Portrush, admitting that victory often feels fleeting. “If I win, it’s going to be awesome for two minutes,” he confessed Tuesday, reflecting on the transient joy of a title and the daily wrestle with golf’s relentless cycle.
He went further, describing success as “not fulfilling from a sense of the deepest places of your heart,” and credited his family, his wife Meredith and son Bennett, as the true sources of lasting happiness.
Yet, Scheffler’s social feed tells a different story. His stoked anticipation was on full display along with a set of images from Portrush.
“It all starts tomorrow 💪 @theopen” Scheffler wrote with a certain powerful ring to it. The importance of this major is definitely not lost on him.
Scheffler knows that a triumph this week would carry beyond brief elation. A victory at the 153rd Open Championship would bring him one step closer to a career Grand Slam, having already captured two Masters titles (2022, 2024) and the 2025 PGA Championship.
Despite his philosophical musings, the World No. 1 is anything but complacent. He has embraced links golf’s unique challenges, shifting gears from an analytic approach to one that leans on creativity and fun, praising Royal Portrush as “a fun place to play” even with limited experience on its dunes.
In practice rounds, Scheffler has been methodical, sharpening his short game to navigate unpredictable gales and testing every tumble on the greens. His underperformance on the green is costing him good birdie chances, as we witnessed during the Scottish Open.
