World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, stood at T31 in the FedEx St. Jude Championship and thus qualified in the top 50 standings to play at Olympia Fields North Course.

Scheffler is one of the most prominent names in golf. But this World No. 1 golfer’s BWW Championship title is currently at stake after the second round because Max Homa had a groundbreaking round, and his total score of 10-under 130 is quite unlikely to be beaten. Despite all this, the six-time PGA Tour winner made a post to support an NBA player, Seth Curry, Stephen Curry’s brother.
The NBA brothers are quite famous and are each other’s biggest support system, though they play on two different teams. But now the professional golfer also extends his supportive gesture by posting a picture of Seth Curry on his Instagram story, where Curry is seen in a cheerful mood wearing his red jersey.
In that story, Scottie is watching the Dallas Mavericks player on his big screen TV. He captioned the story with a heartfelt line for his NBA buddy, “Who else has seen this?”. He also tagged Seth Curry in that story.
