Scottie Scheffler celebrates Memorial win with newborn son and wife Meredith in emotional scenes after ANOTHER PGA Tour triumph

Published

Scottie Scheffler was greeted on the 18th green by wife Meredith and their baby son Bennett, with the World No 1 recording his first victory since becoming a father.

In emotional scenes, Meredith handed Bennett to Scheffler and said: ‘We are so proud of you! So proud of you! Say ‘way to go Daddy, I love you!’. I’m so proud of you!’

The World No 1’s family were waiting for him as he recorded a one-shot victory over Collin Morikawa, despite shooting a two-over par round of 74 on Sunday.

It’s the first tournament Scheffler has won since becoming a father and also the first since police charges were dropped following his shock arrest at the PGA Championship in May.

‘This tournament is very special to us, and it will be for a long time because of this moment,’ Scheffler said to Amanda Balionis. ‘It’s pretty amazing.’
