Scheffler-Caddie Struggles With Severe Stomach Pains at The Open Championship 2024

Scottie Scheffler played with a handicap yesterday at The Open Championship 2024. His caddie Ted Scott had to take repeated time-outs during the second round and then lay on the floor several times with a pained face while the world number one did his job without Scott’s active support. Even Shane Lowry and Matt Fitzpatrick, who were playing ahead of Scheffler in the group, noticed this and enquired about Scott’s condition.

After the round, Scheffler confirmed that his bag man had severe stomach problems. “Yeah, he had a bit of food poisoning last night — well, could have been food poisoning, could be some sort of stomach bug. But he seemed to feel better as the day went on. The doc here took good care of him. But he did not sleep very much last night apparently.,” reported the two-time Masters champion. “We didn’t know if he was going to be able to go this morning, but he fought it out. You saw him laying down probably quite a bit out there, which was pretty funny. He’s a fighter. He did a good job today and battled through it.”
