Golf Has Been Secondary for Scottie Scheffler of Late. It's Hard to Know What to Expect at Masters

  • On Thursday, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler begins his quest for a third Green Jacket at the 2026 Masters at Augusta National Golf Club, aiming to become the fastest player to reach three wins.
  • Scheffler emphasized maintaining perspective, noting he would be a "pretty miserable person" if he let golf define him while balancing professional competition with his life at home.
  • The 29-year-old American arrived at Augusta with wife Meredith Scheffler and their two sons, Bennett and newborn Remy, relying on a support system that allows him to maintain focus.
  • Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson are absent for the first time since 1994, while dry weather and severe slopes at Augusta National demand extreme precision from the field.
  • Victory would mark Scheffler's third Masters title in seven appearances, placing him among the sport's all-time greats, though he remains focused on the present rather than historical records.
