Revisiting what Scottie Scheffler said after his 2024 Masters win
When Scottie Scheffler was playing in the 2024 Masters, there were doubts about him potentially withdrawing from the tournament due to his wife's pregnancy. However, a withdrawal was not needed and Scheffler eventually ended up winning the tournament.
Post his victory though, he spoke about the birth of his first child and competing in golf. Scheffler mentioned that while he was going to enjoy the birth of his child, he also enjoyed competing. However, he made sure to let the world know that golf would be his fourth priority.
Via Golf Digest, Scheffler said:
"I will definitely enjoy the birth of my first child. But with that being said, I still love competing. My priorities will change here very soon. My son or daughter will now be the main priority, along with my wife, so golf will now be probably fourth in line."

"But I still love competing. I don't plan on taking my eye off the ball anytime soon, that's for sure."
Based on these statements and the fact that Scottie Scheffler hasn't withdrawn from the 2024 PGA Championships, one can be hopeful of seeing him compete at the event. It will be worth observing Scheffler's future on the PGA Tour.
