Golf icon attempts to replicate Scheffler’s unique swing before admitting defeat

2024 has been an incredible year for world number on Scottie Scheffler.

The American golfer has bagged an eye-watering SIX titles to date on the PGA Tour this season, while breaking all kinds of records.

Just last weekend, the 28-year-old overcame his close pal Tom Kim in a playoff to take the Travelers Championship title to solidify his place as best golfer on the planet.

The two-time major winner neted $3.8m for the win at the final Signature event of the season before the FedExCup playoffs.

He’s won four Signature events, The Masters and The Players Championship – all before July.

Scheffler has earned $28,096,857 so far this PGA Tour season after his win at the Travelers Championship.

And another Sunday winner – 2024 World Golf Hall of Fame inductee Padraig Harrington – who won the PGA Champions Tour Dick’s Sporting Open for the third time in a row has attempted the Texan unique style swing.

Scheffler’s unique has baffled many with his foot movement.

The fundamentals of his swing are sound, but Scheffler’s swing isn’t the most conventional one pro golf.

His feet move all over the place during the swing, and it can make for some awkward-looking finishes.

So, three-time major winner Harrington was asked to try a mimic the Masters champion’s unconventional style by PGA Champions Tour social media team.

The Dublin native attempted the swing as he dragged his feet back like Scheffler on his down swing – but it didn’t go to plan.

After a wild couple of attempts, the Rathfarnham star hilariously said: “I can’t do that, no chance.

“No, No, I can’t do that.

“You know what we need to do… I think we need scottie to do a little bit of a jig.”
