NFL icon leaves Scottie Scheffler horrified with golf shot

By ERIC BLUM

A tee shot from NFL icon Peyton Manning left PGA star Scottie Scheffler horrified after it left the course and hit a house around 7 a.m. local time at the Memorial Tournament Pro-Am. 

Manning is not an official competitor at the Ohio tournament, but got a few shots in with the pros watching. The legendary quarterback gets a ton of momentum behind his driver, with the ball leaving the shot in an instant. 

The next moment has a loud bang ripple to the tee box with Manning immediately recognizing what happened.  

The camera pans to Scheffler, who is doubled over at the shot before standing back up shocked as what he witnessed. 

‘Good morning sir,’ Scheffler said in reaction to the ball slamming into the house. ‘That’s too much’.  

The audio did not include anything resembling broken windows, with any damage to the home just beyond the course unclear.

Manning’s shot hit a house, causing the world’s No 1 golfer to double over in extreme laughter

Scheffler is competing in Dublin two weeks after winning the PGA Championship, a victory that should help him maintain his status as the No 1 golfer in the world for a bit longer. 

Manning himself has been involved in several celebrity golf tournaments, and is an avid player to the point where is a member of Augusta National Golf Club. 

Beyond holding The Masters, becoming a member at Augusta National is invite-only and is extremely exclusive, with the club’s membership totaling around 300, per the Sports Business Journal.

Peyton’s younger brother, Eli Manning, became a member at Augusta National himself last year. 

Scheffler is in the mix to win the Memorial Tournament Pro-Am, sitting only three strokes back of the leaders midway through the second round.
