ALBANY (BAHAMAS): It's not all about the money, honey. For a World No. 1 golfer, it is about the thrill of competition. With talk of Ryder Cup compensation for 'greedy' American players a hot topic at Albany Golf Club, as mediapersons got an opportunity to meet the top players after an off-season lull, Scottie Scheffler was a tad touchy about the subject although he made his swings with a smile.
"I don't play golf for money," said the Hero World Challenge defending champion. "I've been playing golf my whole life for free and the money's just a bonus. I'm going to do the best I can in my community to steward that money well," he endorsed tournament host Tiger Woods' idea of handing out Ryder Cup bucks to charity, etc. "I want to win just as bad for zero dollars. I play because I love the competition."
