Scottie Scheffler, the world’s No. 1 golfer, faced an unexpected setback on Christmas Day while attempting to make homemade ravioli at a rental home. Using a wine glass to shape his pasta, he accidentally broke it, resulting in a shard piercing his right palm. This injury required surgery and forced him to miss his first two tournaments of the 2024 season. Scheffler expressed frustration over the incident and has since taken greater care in the kitchen. He feels optimistic about the full recovery of his hand without long-term issues as he prepares for the Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
It's one of those deals where immediately after it happened, I was mad at myself because I was like gosh, that's so stupid, but you just don't think about it when you're in the moment.
Even if you're like me and you don't drink wine, you've got to be real careful with wine glasses.
A friend of Scheffler's who happens to be a surgeon came to the rescue and helped stop the bleeding.
Scheffler said that he does not expect his right hand to incur any long-term damage.
