Scottie Scheffler, valued at \$92.5 million, enters the 2025 U.S. Open as the top favorite. Despite the spotlight, the PGA Championship winner remains unfazed by betting odds, choosing instead to focus solely on his performance on the course.
In a candid revelation, Scheffler shared that he deleted his Venmo account. The decision came after fans either sent him money for winning bets or requested compensation when he lost, creating uncomfortable situations off the green.
Scheffler emphasized that every professional golfer hears from fans about betting outcomes. He admitted it was an unpleasant distraction, so removing Venmo helped him concentrate better on his game without outside pressures.
With three victories this season and nine top-10 finishes, Scheffler is in top form. His most recent win at the Memorial added $4 million to his earnings, solidifying his status as the favorite for the U.S. Open at Oakmont.
