Scottie Scheffler revealed that he was going to put his PGA Championship 2025 trophy in a room called 'the golf room'. He added that the room was completely dedicated to his golf junk.

On Sunday, May 18, Scottie Scheffler claimed the PGA Championship 2025 after a dominating five-stroke victory over Harris English, Bryson DeChambeau, and Davis Riley. He carded an even-par 71 to earn his third major championship and 15th title on the PGA Tour.

During the winner's press conference, Scheffler was asked where he was going to keep his big Wanamaker Trophy.

"I have a room in my house called 'The Golf Room," he replied. "And that's where all my crap goes, literally. It's just a room full of all my golf junk. I've got some trophies in there as well, and that's probably where this one will go," he said.

Upon being asked if the room was well-presented, the World No. 1 golfer had a hilarious response.

Reflecting on his win, Scheffler said it was a special victory and that he was proud of his performance throughout the week. He added that he would remember the back nine for a long time.

"It was a grind out there," he continued. "I think at one point on the front I maybe had a four- or five-shot lead, and making the turn, I think I was tied for the lead.So to step up when I needed to the most, I'll remember that for a while."
