Scottie Scheffler reflects on spending time with President Donald Trump

Earlier this month, Scottie Scheffler spent some time hanging out with President Donald Trump. They met each other at a Yankees game on September 11. Prior to the start of the Ryder Cup, the professional golfer had a lot to say about the world leader.

The PGA Tour sensation noted that one of the President's best qualities is that he always tries his best to make everyone in his presence feel welcome.

Here's a look at what Scottie Scheffler had to say about President Donald Trump's nature (via Golfweek):

"He just loves the game of golf. And he's one of those guys when you're around him, he does such a good job of, like, feeding confidence into everybody around him. That was one of the things I noticed a lot with the little bit of time I spent with him, is he treats everybody the same and treats people with the utmost respect.

"Whether you're the person serving us lunch or the caddie on the golf course or the guy who's the president of the club that we're at, he treats everybody like they're the greatest person in the world."

While Scottie Scheffler stated that the President has not addressed Team USA yet, he is certain that if they work hard and bring the trophy home, they will definitely be hearing from the 79-year-old, who is also an avid golfer.
