Three years ago, Scheffler broke onto the scene as the risky Ryder Cup captain’s pick who Steve Stricker boldly matched with then-world No. 1 Jon Rahm, and Scheffler faced him down for a 4&3 win. From there, he took the leap to stardom, winning the 2022 Masters, becoming world No. 1 himself and taking over as the best player in the game.

Scottie Scheffler showed his trash-talking side that is legendary in Dallas circles and illustrates the ultra-competitive nature of golf’s No. 1 player. Tom Kim expected no less. The Presidents Cup turned spicy on Thursday when the 22-year-old Kim took his celebrations to another level after he buried a birdie putt from just inside 30 feet on the par-3 seventh hole.
