Before participating in The Open last week at Royal Portrush, world No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler raised a lot of eyebrows with his comments about golf not being entirely fulfilling. Scheffler then went out and blew away the competition, winning the tournament by four strokes to capture his fourth major.
Yet something that would seemingly be even more fulfilling for Scheffler would be seeing the Dallas Cowboys win the Super Bowl.
“Gosh, that’s a good question,” Scheffler said as a guest on the “Pardon My Take” podcast when asked if he’d be willing to give up a major to see America’s Team lift the Lombardi Trophy. “Gosh, I don’t know. I would trade one, for sure, for a Super Bowl.”

The 29-year-old Scheffler was born in New Jersey but moved to Dallas when he was 6 years old. Scheffler added more to the theoretical conversion rate, saying he’d trade “like 10” Waste Management victories in exchange for that Super Bowl.
“I’ve been rooting for a Super Bowl for a long time as well,” he said, joking that he might have experienced more disappointment with football than he has in golf. “A lot of hard work has gone into cheering on the Boys.”
The Cowboys, of course, have not enjoyed a Scheffler level of success this millennium. After winning three Super Bowls in four years from 1992-95, the Cowboys haven’t even reached a conference championship in the past 29 years, going just 5-13 in the playoffs during Scheffler’s lifetime.
