World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler has been presented with an exclusive special winner circle of shoes from Nike. Scheffler’s exploits from last year saw him clinch the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational by 5 strokes and a score of 15-under 273.

Nike, established in 1964 and headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon, has a long-standing tradition of collaborating with top athletes across various sports disciplines.

On March 8, PGA Tour’s X (formerly Twitter) handle posted the video of the collaboration and captioned it:

“A champion has no finish line. As the 2024 winner, Scottie Scheffler received exclusive “Winner’s Circle” @Nike Victory Pro 4 shoes ahead of his title defense @APinv.”

Scheffler, in response, had a few words to share upon receiving the gift from Nike. In the aforementioned video, he said:

“The Winner Circle shoes. I like it. Let’s see what we got this year…You know, they are just, I guess, basically representing the defending champion. So I can only wear these this week. My name on there, winner of the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational. And hopefully, I’ll be getting a fresh pair of these again in my locker next year,” he noted. (0:09 onwards)
