We often hear snippets about Schauffele – like Jordan Spieth calling him the funniest player in the Ryder Cup locker room – but it’s likely fans don’t know the full backstory on one of golf’s biggest stars. Here are 15 of the most important things to know about the 2024 PGA champion.
A video captured by a fan shows that as DeChambeau made the turn and headed to the back nine in the hunt, he tossed a golf ball to a kid in the crowd. But apparently, some older jabroni snagged it and tried to run off with it. And Bryson, rightfully, wasn’t about to let that stand.
Schauffele’s win ended years of frustration in the majors. The 30-year-old Californian closed with a six-under 65 and set the all-time major scoring record in relation to par with a 21-under 263 aggregate.
It will take a special type of belief to look at the congested PGA Championship leaderboard and think your name will be the one above the rest. So the question is, what do these players believe?
Shane Lowry came within inches of putting his name alone in golf’s record book in round three at Valhalla. He happily settled for sharing a piece of history – and playing his way into serious contention for a second career major.
