Scottie Scheffler's Son Had Unfortunate Bathroom Accident at Memorial Tournament
Being a dad to a newborn or young toddler means preparing for the unexpected. It also means knowing that an unexpected poo-splosion is almost certain to come at the most inopportune of times—and you just have to roll with it. World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler did just that after winning the Memorial Tournament on Sunday, June 1, 2025. While being interviewed after the victory, he was holding his son, Bennett, who was spotted with a poop stain right in the middle of his lower back. Advertisement As Kyle Porter of Normal Sport said, this is essentially "peak dad life." And in perfect fashion, Scheffler just rolled with it. During a video caught by CBS, Scheffler was seen celebrating with his wife Meredith and when she handed their son, Bennett, to Scheffler, could be heard saying "he has poop all over his back." Scheffler responded, stating, "That'll happen." Scheffler's victory at the Memorial Tournament marked his second consecutive title at the brutally tough PGA Tour event. With the victory, he joined Tiger Woods as the only two players in history to win consecutive Memorial Tournament titles. Advertisement Scheffler carded a 10-under 278 for the tournament, wrapping up the victory by posting a two-under 70 in his final round and ultimately winning by four strokes. His red-hot play has been on full display, as he's won three times in his last four starts, including a victory at the PGA Championship. All three of the victories have come by at least four shots.

‘Squid Game 2' Cast on Connecting With Fans and Relating to Their Characters: ‘Thanos Isn't A Villain, But He Is A Man-Child'
'Squid Game' creator, director and writer Hwang Dong-hyuk joined production designer Chae Kyoung-sun, editor Nam Na-yeong and director of photography Kim Ji-yong and members of the 'Squid Game 2' cast (Lee Jung-jae, Kang Ae-shim, Park Sung-hoon, Lee Byung-hun and Choi Seung-hyun) for a panel and screening on Friday night that was part of Netflix's FYSEE LA series. When it came to choosing which seemingly-innocent schoolyard games would become death traps in the second installment of his dystopian black comedy, Hwang says he looked for challenges that would force players to vote en masse. More from Variety Pablo Larraín to Direct Netflix Domestic Horror Miniseries 'My Sad Dead,' From Fabula and 'The Eternaut's' K&S Films (EXCLUSIVE) 'Lincoln Lawyer' Season 4 Casts Cobie Smulders (EXCLUSIVE) 'Nobody Wants This' Season 2 Sets October Release Date on Netflix 'An important theme I wanted to explore in the second season was the notion of elections,' said Hwang. 'So many free democratic countries around the world are choosing their leaders, and therefore their futures, through the act of casting a vote.' 'Elections exist to provide the right direction for society to head in, but as we all see, it's actually leading people to even further division and hostility – almost the opposite way of what it was originally intended to do. I really wanted to poke at the theme of majority rule in elections within the liberal democratic world, and pose the question: can [democracy] truly bring us down the right path? Is it capable of allowing us to choose the right leaders?' For Park Sung-hoon, who plays Cho Hyun-ju (a special forces agent ostracized by her peers when she came out as a transgender woman) joining the cast of 'Squid Game 2' allowed him to form a deeper bond with an understanding of the LGBTQ+. community. '[The fans] have given me so much support and love despite me being a cisgender actor playing a transgender character,' said Sung-hoon. 'I think the world is becoming a better place for the LGBTQ+ community, but prejudices and biases still exist, and Geum-ja is a character who represents that kind of attitude towards the community.' 'But later on in the show, Geum-ja warms up to her, she embraces her as one of her friends and family. I hope the viewers feel the same way about Hyun-ju, warming up to her as family. In season three, we go through a lot together, so we develop an even stronger bond.' Sung-hoon wasn't the only newcomer impacted by the show's writing – Choi Seung-hyun, (a rapper and former member of the K-pop group BIGBANG) says understanding the psychology of his character Thanos helped him reflect on his own past. 'Thanos and I have some common ground, as a rapper who went out second in a competition show and had drug issues,' Seung-hyun explained. 'While you might think of me as a successful rapper, I also had my failures, so I had to come face-to-face with my past mistakes when I was looking at Thanos. It took a lot of courage for me to take on this role, but Director Hwang put so much trust in me. 'I don't think Thanos is a villain, but he is a man-child,' Seung-hyun continued. 'Playing this character, it was an opportunity for me to self-reflect on my past and think about what I've done wrong. Through 'Squid Game,' and Thanos, I feel like I'm ready to move on to a new chapter of my life. I learned so much from him.' The day after the FYC event, the 'Squid Game' stars walked the red carpet, where Lee Jung-jae told Variety he still wants to see Leonardo DiCaprio on the show.
