He added that overall; it has been fun getting to know Schauffele. He then mentioned what Mickelson had said, pertaining to Schauffele not being as appreciated as he should. “I think Phil said it, that he might be one of the most underrated players on the PGA Tour even though he’s obviously had great success and I would have to very much agree with that”.

As per the 28-year-old, Schauffele is one of the top ten putters, who strikes the ball beautifully while also driving well. Schauffele is, apparently, someone with all the shots. Spieth also referred to him as one of the nicest guys he has ever met.

According to Spieth, Schauffele is someone who knew he had the talent, and put in all the work in the right way. “Like, he’s not. He seems to have the right mix of feel and technique and at the same time he’s got his dad as his primary coach. They know exactly where he needs to be at all times”. Schauffele is also consistent in his game and does not sway much while on the course.
