Scottie Scheffler injured himself in the most Scottie Scheffler way imaginable
World No.1 Scottie Scheffler says he's not going to rush back from his hand injury for the sake of it.
Scottie Scheffler has revealed he cut his hand making homemade raviolis.
The World No.1 was involved in the freak accident during the Christmas period.
Scheffler, 28, required surgery to remove shards of glass from his right palm.
The lengthy layoff has forced Scheffler to miss the first signature event of 2025 in Hawaii as well as the Sony Open and American Express.
The reigning Masters champion targeted a return last week but decided not to risk it over advice from his medical team.
He wants to play in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am at the end of the month.
The deadline to register for the tournament is Friday.

Scheffler told reporters in a virtual news conference on 20 January that he'll make that decision in the next few days.
He confirmed that he cut his hand making raviolis.
Scheffler also refused to say when he started hitting golf balls.
Yet he maintained that his recovery is going to plan.
A new clip of Scheffler was posted on Sunday evening by Chirosport TV and the video shows the golfer being put through his paces in a gym session.
Scheffler was wearing a bandage and could be seen performing some overhead lunges with a resistance band to help improve his stability.

I *think* this is the first sighting of Scottie Scheffler since he cut his hand on Christmas Day and had to get surgery. Looks like he’s wearing some sort of cover/brace
