Now, let’s dive into this comparison. Just like Jim, Scheffler exudes a calm and collected aura, never appearing flustered or overwhelmed. He’s the master of taking everything in stride, just like Jim would in the face of Dwight’s crazy antics. But hold on a second! Before we crown him as the Jim of the PGA Tour, let’s not forget his reputation as a not-so-exciting golfer. Not too long ago, NHL legend Ryan Whitney labeled the pro “boring,” but clearly there’s a lot more than meets the eye when it comes to him.

Scottie Scheffler, the talented golfer with a great sense of humor, has revealed his favorite TV show: ‘The Office.’ Not only does he enjoy watching the hilarious antics of Michael Scott and the Dunder Mifflin crew, but he also shares his love for funny golf slang.
In a delightful twist, Scheffler playfully despises the term “fried egg,” finding it less than appetizing on the golf course. However, he finds the phrase “duck hook” incredibly amusing, showcasing his lighthearted approach to the game.
But that’s not all—Scheffler’s caddie has a witty saying about “quack hooks” that never fails to crack him up. The golf pro’s love for ‘The Office’ goes beyond casual viewing. He admits to watching it on repeat, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to his off-course activities. Who can resist the charms of Michael Scott and the humorous chaos that unfolds at Dunder Mifflin?

As Scheffler continues to dominate the golf world, fans have fallen head over heels for his playful and lighthearted side. Some fans argue that his answer aligns more with Stanley’s style of answering questions—starting a sentence without a clue and hoping to stumble upon the answer along the way. Who knows where that train of thought will take him?

Sometimes he’ll start a sentence and he doesn’t even know where it’s going. Just hope to find it along the way.
