Scottie Scheffler hopes he finishes the week with a text from a certain someone.
The World No. 1 golfer revealed on Tuesday at his Ryder Cup press conference that he hears via from President Donald Trump after wins.
“I get a call or text from him sometimes after wins,” Scheffler said Tuesday. “The President is kind of funny. He loves the game of golf.” 3
Trump is scheduled to attend the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, N.Y. on Friday, and he’ll get a firsthand glimpse of Scheffler and his Team USA cohorts taking on Team Europe in the biennial international competition.
The President famously gave Team USA a pep talk over the phone for the NHL’s Four Nations Cup earlier this year, though Scheffler was unsure if captain Keegan Bradley’s squad will get the same treatment.
