Scottie Scheffler on Masters Champions Dinner, seating chart and more Scottie Scheffler was unprepared for the experience of hosting the Masters Champions Dinner for the first time. The event, held annually at Augusta National Golf Club, is a private gathering of all past Masters champions, celebrating the previous year’s winner. Known as the most exclusive dinner in golf, the evening features a menu curated by the host and is served in honor of their victory. Despite the prestige, Scheffler admitted he felt nervous ahead of his debut in 2023. “The only thing I really knew is where I was going to sit,” Scheffler said. “That’s basically the only thing I knew, sitting next to Mr. Crenshaw and the chairman. So, yeah, I was definitely nervous. I’m not really a super social guy to begin with.” He revealed he arrived early to familiarize himself with the setup and invited his wife, Meredith, to preview the event. “I got there early, checked everything out, kind of snuck Meredith up there, let her see because she kind of helped me plan out a lot of the food and all that stuff. Obviously, I wanted her to see it, so I kind of snuck her up the back, showed her everything before it got started.” This year marks Scheffler’s fourth Masters Champions Dinner, having hosted two of the past three years. Rory McIlroy will take over as host after completing his Grand Slam in 2025. Scheffler shared insights about the seating arrangements, explaining that while there is a subtle protocol, the placement isn’t strictly assigned. “There’s a little protocol,” he said. “Guys kind of have like, I would say, sections where they sit. But you move around a little bit. There’s not necessarily assigned seats, but I’m definitely not going to go sit in the area where Tiger and Jack sit.#rory_mcilroy #scottie_scheffler #jon_rahm #augusta_national_golf_club #masters_champions_dinner
