After clinching his third major title at Quail Hollow, Scheffler was visibly moved during the trophy presentation. As he spoke about the unwavering support of his family, he paused, overwhelmed with emotion, particularly when mentioning Meredith. “I have such a great support system,” he said, his voice choked with tears. “I’m so blessed.” (talkSPORT, NBC Sports)
Meredith’s influence on Scheffler’s career has been profound. The couple, who met in high school and married in 2020, have shared numerous milestones together. In April 2024, as Scheffler competed in the Masters, Meredith was heavily pregnant with their first child. Despite the pressures of the tournament, Scheffler found solace in her words. “She told me, ‘Who are you to say that you’re not ready?’… We talked about that God is in control and that the Lord is leading me,” he recalled.
Their son, Bennett, was born shortly after, adding a new dimension to Scheffler’s life. Balancing fatherhood with a demanding golf career, he often credits Meredith for keeping him grounded. “I always get emotional when I talk about Meredith,” he admitted during the Players Championship in 2024. “She has such a good understanding of how much work it takes to get to this point.”
Scheffler’s journey hasn’t been without challenges. In 2023, following a historic defeat at the Ryder Cup, he was seen in tears, comforted by Meredith. Yet, through victories and setbacks, their bond has remained a constant source of strength
As Scheffler continues to make his mark in the golfing world, it’s evident that behind his success lies a partnership built on mutual respect, faith, and unwavering support.
