Scottie Scheffler has awkward trophy mishap during PGA Championship celebration: ‘We’ll fix it’

Scottie Scheffler’s joy at winning the PGA Championship resulted in the lid of the Wanamaker Trophy popping off. As he lifted the prestigious trophy to celebrate his third major title, the lid flew off, prompting PGA of America officials behind him to scramble to catch it before it hit the ground. Scheffler placed the lid back on with a smile, finding humor in the situation.

After securing victory at the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Country Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, Scheffler was seen fixing the slightly crooked lid of the Wanamaker Trophy by tapping it on the ground. Despite the mishap, Scheffler’s win was well-deserved as he finished the tournament at 11-under par, holding off a strong challenge from Jon Rahm.

During a post-match interview, Scheffler acknowledged the difficulty of finishing a major championship but highlighted his patience and resilience throughout the tournament. He expressed satisfaction with his performance and credited his strong play on the back nine for securing the victory.
