Scottie Scheffler Celebrates Masters 2024 Victory at Hometown Tavern Amid Personal Countdown
Augusta, GA—Scottie Scheffler, following his resounding victory at the 88th Masters in Augusta, Georgia, planned to fully relish the moment. After wrapping up the tournament with a 4-under 68 at the iconic Augusta National Golf Club, he expressed his intent to savor the win. “I will go home and soak up this victory tonight,” Scheffler stated during his winner’s press conference.
True to his word, once Scheffler returned to Dallas, he headed straight to the Inwood Tavern—a favorite local spot—to celebrate. Dressed in his final round attire, he proudly sported the green jacket, becoming the center of admiration, though he opted for a different hat for the evening.
The celebration was somewhat muted by personal circumstances, as Scheffler had a private jet ready nearby the tournament location, prepared to rush back should his wife Meredith begin labor with their first child, expected later in the month. His urgency to return was evident during his press conference. “In my head, all I can think about right now is getting home,” he admitted. “I’m not thinking about the tournament. I’m not thinking about the green jacket. I’m trying to answer your questions, and I’m trying to get home.”

Though the event did not match the more exuberant celebrations like Shane Lowry’s post-British Open bash in 2019, Scheffler’s evening in Dallas highlighted his down-to-earth approach to celebrating a significant career milestone.
