Scottie Scheffler reveals how homemade ravioli led to his horrific hand injury

Scottie Scheffler is gearing up for his return to PGA Tour action this week after a holiday hand injury kept him sidelined for nearly the first month of play.

Arriving at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Scheffler knew he had some explaining to do about the December kitchen mishap that required surgery. All we knew about the incident is that it involved a broken wine glass. On Tuesday we got the full story and it's honestly sillier than we could've imagined.

According to the world No. 1 golfer, he was making homemade ravioli at a rental home without proper kitchen equipment. So he used a wine glass to slice the dough and you can guess what happened next.

“I had my hand on top of it and it broke, which, side note, I’ve heard nothing but horror stories since this happened about wine glasses, so be careful,” Scheffler said per The Athletic. “Even if you’re like me and you don’t drink wine, you’ve got to be real careful with wine glasses.”

The glass pierced his right palm and immediately made Scheffler reconsider his cooking ingenuity.

“It’s one of those deals where immediately after it happened, I was mad at myself because I was like gosh, that’s so stupid, but you just don’t think about it when you’re in the moment,” Scheffler said. “Yeah, definitely been a little more careful doing stuff at home.”

Honestly, this is the type of silly, but serious injury you expect to see from a Major League Baseball player — particularly a New York Met.

We'll see how much the injury and recovery impacts his game this week. In the meantime, we can go ahead and guess which dish will not be on his Masters Champions dinner menu this April.
