Collin Morikawa’s comments about Scottie Scheffler speak volumes about their relationship

Golf star Collin Morikawa isn’t surprised to see Scottie Scheffler dominating the sport once more in 2024 and has hailed certain strengths that make his fellow American just so good

Both Collin Morikawa and Scottie Scheffler have each won two majors apiece, but that doesn’t mean the pair are equals.

At least Morikawa’s own comments about his peer don’t appear to suggest he feels as such. That’s after the 27-year-old was only too happy to laud his golf rival, albeit one alongside whom he recently won the Presidents Cup.

One would forgive Morikawa for harbouring some resentment towards his fellow American, having battled him all season both on the PGA Tour and major circuit. Instead, the Los Angeles native – who won both The Open and the PGA Championship in little more than a year – was nothing but glowing when the worldNo1 came up.

Scottie’s been playing amazing,” gushed Morikawa during a recent appearance on Grant Horvat Golf. “It’s amazing to see and motivates me, because he hits the ball so frigging good.”
