Scottie Scheffler, with his dominance, is becoming an increasingly interesting figure on the golf scene. The 29-year-old golfer arouses the interest of the public, and his press releases are more and more interesting. Reporters do not only focus on his performances, but also want to find out more about his past and the specifics of his upbringing.
Scottie is not a person who opens up a lot, nor does he touch on his childhood and growing up, but reporters often try to get interesting information from him.
At the press conference before the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs, the world number 1 got some interesting questions, and one of them was really specific: Does Scottie Scheffler remember the last time he paid for a round of golf?
The 29-year-old made everyone present laugh with a story that happened a few years ago.

"Last time I paid for a round of golf? It's been a while. I remember the last time I didn't get to pay for a round of golf and one of my buddies in the pro shop had to pay for the round of golf. That was pretty funny. We walked into the pro shop at the local public course, and I knew the pro there, and he was like, hey, Scottie, how you doing, great to have you out. I was like, I'd like to just pay for the round, we're teeing off at 2:00. He's like, you're good. My buddy was like, thanks, man, that's awesome, appreciate it. He's like, actually, you've got to pay.
It was probably five years ago and we still laugh about it to this day because he was so excited to get the free round and the pro was like, actually you're still paying, buddy.."- he said.

Scheffler's future
It is hard to imagine Scheffler paying for a round of golf, especially now that he is such an important figure on the golf scene. Some are predicting that Scottie will break all the records of the golf icon, but giving such predictions at this moment seems too optimistic.
There is no doubt that Scottie could achieve much greater success, but the important thing is that he remains healthy, just as motivated, but even so, there are many factors that will dictate his path.
