SAN DIEGO — Xander Schauffele spent the last few months changing diapers and tending to daddy duties rather than doing much swinging of a golf club. It was made easier knowing that the last tournament he played, the Baycurrent Classic in Japan, ended in victory, alleviating some concerns after a mostly disappointing year on the course.
Schauffele, who won two major championships in 2024, the PGA and British Open, never got on track in 2025 after an early-season rib injury sidelined him for six weeks and forced him to play catch-up the rest of the year.
