Scheffler was asked if he ever hears from fans who have a financial interest in how he performs. The question was in reference to Scheffler being the overwhelming favorite to win the U.S. Open (+275 at BetMGM), which will start on Thursday.

Scottie Scheffler says he no longer has Venmo because fans who lost money by betting on the world's No. 1 golfer would request money from him after tournament losses.

During a press conference ahead of this week's U.S. Open, Scheffler revealed he had to close his Venmo account because people would request money from him when he didn't win -- and in rare cases, they would actually send him money.
