PGA Tour star Scottie Scheffler is the favorite heading into the U.S. Open this weekend, and he has taken steps to distance himself from the financial pressure that comes with his status as a top athlete. During a press conference at Oakmont, Scheffler spoke about the overwhelming attention he has received from fans, particularly those with a financial stake in his performance. He revealed that after a recent tournament, he was contacted by numerous individuals who either offered to pay for his success or sought financial favors in exchange for better results. This led him to delete his Venmo account, a popular payment app, to avoid any potential conflicts of interest.
