PLEASE STOP – I BEG YOU!
Emotions ran high after Scottie Scheffler’s unexpected loss at the FedEx St. Jude Championship — but no one felt the sting more than his wife, Meredith. Fighting back tears, she pleaded with fans to stop the relentless criticism and personal attacks on her husband.
Meredith revealed the heartbreaking reality behind the scenes: late-night phone calls from anonymous numbers, laced with cruel insults like, “You loser, old man, stop playing golf!” The constant barrage, she said, had worn Scottie down emotionally, turning what should be a tough-but-fair sporting defeat into a deeply personal ordeal.
And then, in a moment of raw anger, Meredith let slip eight sharp words that cut through the noise:
“You don’t know him — so stop hurting him!”
Her message is clear — behind every athlete is a human being, and behind that human is a family that feels every blow.
