Reigning Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, after recovering from a hand injury sustained while preparing Christmas dinner, returns to the PGA Tour at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Scottie Scheffler , the reigning Masters champion, made his highly anticipated return to the PGA Tour at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am after a brief absence due to a hand injury sustained while preparing Christmas dinner. The incident occurred while Scheffler was attempting to cut ravioli dough using a wine glass, which unfortunately shattered, causing a shard to puncture his hand.
Fortunately, the injury was not as severe as it could have been, and Scheffler underwent a successful surgery to remove the glass shards. Scheffler shared details about the incident and his recovery process during a press conference ahead of the tournament. He emphasized that he practiced diligently in cold weather in Dallas to ensure he was fully ready for his return. The setback prevented him from participating in The Sentry at Kapalua and The American Express, tournaments he typically enjoys. Instead, he focused on his rehabilitation and spent time analyzing past performances, watching extensive video footage of his victories.Scheffler's return to the PGA Tour comes at a crucial time, as he aims to build on his exceptional performance last season, which saw him secure a record-breaking eight victories, the most on the tour since Tiger Woods' dominant 2007 campaign. While the field at Pebble Beach lacks the presence of Xander Schauffele, the reigning PGA and British Open champion, who is recovering from a rib injury, it remains a highly competitive event. Scheffler's participation undoubtedly adds to the excitement and anticipation surrounding the tournament
