Scottie Scheffler’s Guest Ahead of Scottish Open Is Turning Heads

Scheffler's special guest grabs attention.

Scottie Scheffler’s Guest Ahead of Scottish Open Is Turning Heads originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Scottie Scheffler is finally back in action after a break. The Genesis Scottish Open boasts one of the strongest non-major fields after The Players, and he’s part of it. 

The World No. 1 arrived at The Renaissance Club today, but what grabbed the fans’ attention wasn’t him — it was his guest.  Scheffler graced the course with his entire family, including his wife, Meredith, and their son, Bennett. 

The PGA Champion walked in holding his son in his arms while the little boy tightly gripped a golf club.

Bennett is already loving his dad’s sport. As soon as he was placed on the green, he crawled forward, golf club in hand. Probably testing out the course, to give his daddy some pre-game tips. Fans absolutely adored the clicks.

"good little caddy right there" A fan commented.

"So cute !!" Another posted.

"Love to see it 👌🏼" One fan expressed.

"Good luck my man!" A fan worded.

"Going to be a great week" Another chimed in.

"What a family man. Words can’t begin to describe how much more important his family is to him than golf. To him it truly is just a game, that he has been blessed to be able to play for a living. Truly an amazing guy!" One fan said.

"Let's go Scottie!!!🔥🔥" A fan exclaimed.

Scheffler's last first place win came at the Memorial back in early June. His U.S. Open performance was not satisfactory, judging by his standards. 

After a good rest, he will be aiming to add another trophy to the cabinet from Scotland before heading on to the Dunluce Course.
