Scottie Scheffler confirms he'll likely copy Tiger Woods at 2025 Masters
World No.1 Scottie Scheffler has confirmed he may copy Tiger Woods and serve the same food at the 2025 champions' dinner at Augusta National.
Scottie Scheffler has confirmed he plans to take a leaf out of Tiger Woods' book when he attempts to defend his Masters title in 2025.
The tradition unlike any other is still more than seven months away but fervour is slowly starting to build for what will be the first major of the year.
What, exactly, do golf fans have to look forward to over the next few months?
The launch of TGL? Yawn. The Showdown? Also yawn.
Give us some major championship drama and hook it into our veins.
Scheffler hopped onto GOLF's Subpar this week to discuss his glittering performances on the course in 2024, his arrest and his Olympic success.
He also discussed what he plans to serve up at the champions' dinner at Augusta National next April.
The two-time major champion admitted he might just run it back and offer guests the same menu.
If it ain't broke, then why fix it?
After Scheffler won his first Masters title in 2022, his guests had the choice of cheeseburger sliders, firecracker shrimp or tortilla soup as their appetiser.
Texas ribeye steak or blackened redfish were the choices on offer for the main course.
And for desert? Warm chocolate chip skillet cookie.
Scheffler told the pod: "I'm wondering if I should just have the exact same menu.
"It was pretty good; it's all my favourite foods. I don't know really what I could do differently. I think it would be kind of fun just to have the exact same food."
The aforementioned Woods opted for steak, chicken, sushi and sashimi at the 2002 Masters.
In 2020, a year after his improbable victory, he served exactly the same.
Sir Nick Faldo also went for fish and chips on two occasions.
