California Golf Roots and College Career
Schauffele grew up in San Diego and won the 2011 California state individual high-school championship while attending Scripps Ranch High School. He began his college career at Long Beach State before transferring to San Diego State.
He turned professional in 2015 and worked through developmental-tour competition before reaching the PGA Tour.

Two Major Championships in 2024
Schauffele won his first major at the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla. His 21-under total of 263 established a major-championship scoring record at the time, and he defeated Bryson DeChambeau by one stroke.
Two months later, he closed with a 65 at Royal Troon to win The Open Championship by two strokes over Billy Horschel and Justin Rose. He became the first player since Brooks Koepka in 2018 to win two men’s majors in one season.
Olympic Gold in Tokyo

Injury, Japan and His 10th Victory
A rib injury interrupted Schauffele’s 2025 season, but he returned to win the Baycurrent Classic in Yokohama. His final-round 64 produced a one-stroke victory over Max Greyserman and his 10th official PGA Tour title.
