LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler has never spent much time reflecting on anything he has done, especially with something grand — another major championship — on the immediate horizon.

But for that moment in Dallas last week, when wife Meredith came home with their first baby, it was hard not to think about a special time in his life.

“I married my high school sweetheart and I always wanted to play professional golf, and now I'm here,” Scheffler said. “I was sitting there with a newborn in my arms and the green jacket in the closet. It was a pretty special time.”

Scheffler has wanted to play professional golf for so long that as a youngster, he wore long pants in the hot Texas sun because that's what the pros did. Now he has 10 titles on the PGA Tour and only a month ago added another Masters green jacket.
