Golf’s world number one has had his first child with his wife Meredith
Fresh from his Masters victory in April, Scottie Scheffler has another reason to celebrate after the birth of his first child.
Golf’s world number one and his wife Meredith welcomed a baby boy on May 8, with Scottie sharing the news on Instagram on Monday.
The 27-year-old uploaded an adorable photo of his newborn cradled in his dad’s arms, alongside the caption: “Welcome to the world little one. Your mom and dad love you so much.”
While he didn’t disclose his baby’s sex or name, the PGA Tour’s official website confirmed the couple welcomed a son they named Bennett.

“I had high expectations of what that would feel like [to be a dad] and those were far exceeded. I thought it would be pretty great and it’s a pretty amazing feeling.

In keeping with the time of year, the venue was decorated with Christmas lights and white and pastel flowers – Scottie even donned a Santa hat.
Upon leaving the celebrations, the newlyweds were fittingly whisked away in a golf cart.
