Scottie Scheffler’s PGA Tour brethren could hardly stop him in 2024, but the start of his 2025 campaign is going to be delayed by an off-the-course accident that involved preparing Christmas dinner.
The PGA Tour announced on Friday that Scheffler, the 2024 PGA Tour Player of the Year who won seven events in the season, has had to withdraw from next week’s season-opening The Sentry in Maui. According to a statement by Scheffler’s manager, Blake Smith, the World No. 1 suffered a puncture wound to his right hand, and small pieces of glass in his palm needed to be removed with surgery.
