Three-time Super Bowl champion and two-time NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes has other interests besides football, as he is a massive golf fan, following The 2024 Masters at Augusta National, in which Scottie Scheffler emerged as the winner.

Mahomes enjoyed The Masters and was impressed by Scheffler performance, as the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback tweeted on his Twitter/X account the following regarding the golfer’s performance at the tournament.

Scheffler previously won The 2022 Masters, and also took home the The Arnold Palmer Invitational last month, being on a dominant run on the PGA Tour, also currently ranked as the number one golfer in the Official World Golf Ranking, position he has held since March 2022.
