AUGUSTA, GEORGIA – The Excitement Builds for Scottie Scheffler at The Masters
Scottie Scheffler is currently basking in the glow of his achievements as he leads The Masters by an impressive four strokes with just four holes left to play this Sunday afternoon. As the world’s No. 1 golfer, Scottie is on the verge of clinching a prestigious title that would not only cement his status in the golfing world but also mean the world to him and his beloved wife, Meredith Scudder.
A Love Story That Hasstood the Test of Time
Scottie and Meredith’s journey began back in high school when they met at Highland Park High School in Texas. Their love story is one for the books as they managed to keep their relationship strong during college—Scottie attending the University of Texas and Meredith choosing Texas A&M. Their bond has only grown stronger through the years.
In June 2020, Scottie took a big step in their relationship, proposing to Meredith during a hiking trip at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve after six meaningful years of dating. Their love culminated in a beautiful winter wonderland-themed wedding in December 2020 at the Park Cities Presbyterian Church in Dallas, Texas, where friends and family gathered to celebrate their special day.
Support Through It All
As Scottie forged his reputation as a talented golfer, Meredith stood by him every step of the way. Their love and teamwork were on full display at Augusta National last year when Scottie won his first Masters title. Meredith was right there in his corner, cheering him on, flaunting the strength and unwavering support she has always shown throughout his career.
Just recently, the couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Bennett, on May 8, 2024. Though Meredith missed the 2024 Masters due to her pregnancy, Scottie made sure to honor her in his victory speech, highlighting the important role she plays in his life.
Family Traditions Make The Masters Special
The family not only shares a passion for golf, but they have also embraced adorable traditions at The Masters. During the annual Par 3 Contest, Meredith and little Bennett joined Scottie as his caddies. We could hardly resist the cuteness overload when we saw Bennett sporting a white jumpsuit with “Scheffler” printed on the back, a sight that melted hearts all around Augusta National Golf Club.
This year, the family truly made a memorable addition to their Masters experience. Both Scottie and Meredith attended the Par 3 Tournament together, marking a significant milestone in their journey as new parents. Despite the excitement of their new arrival, Meredith’s strength during childbirth left Scottie feeling tremendous pride, as he expressed being thrilled about fatherhood, describing it as a “wild ride.”
A Glimpse into Their Lives
The Scheffler family has recently made waves in the entertainment world through their feature in the Netflix docuseries, Full Swing, which provides an intimate look into their personal and professional journeys. Their infectious joy and love for each other are central themes, giving fans a chance to connect with the couple beyond the golf course.
Furthermore, Scottie and Meredith’s shared Christian faith and their fondness for the comedic television series The Office seamlessly weave more depth into their story, showcasing their wholesome and relatable nature.
Looking Ahead
As Scottie stands on the brink of potentially winning his second Masters title, the air is buzzed with excitement—not just for the championship, but for the beautiful life he continues to build with Meredith and their growing family. No matter the outcome of the tournament, one thing is clear: the bond between this winning couple just keeps getting stronger, and they have many more cherished memories to look forward to in the future.
