Scottie Scheffler has locked in his Champions Dinner menu for the 2025 Masters, and it’s packed with Texas-style comfort food. But what does golf’s biggest social media personality think of it? Paige Spiranac needed just two characters to let the world know.
Taking to X, the former pro turned influencer gave her review in the simplest way possible: “10/10.”
A perfect score. No notes. No complaints. Just approval.
Scheffler, who won his second green jacket last April, is sticking with a tried-and-true approach to his Champions Dinner-bringing back most of his 2023 selections while throwing in a few twists.
The menu: Classic Texas with a personal touch
The night will start with cheeseburger sliders, firecracker shrimp, and a new addition-Papa Scheff’s Meatball & Ravioli Bites. That last dish isn’t just a nod to his New Jersey roots; it’s a tribute to his dad, who has been known to whip up some serious meatballs.
There’s a bit of irony in the choice, too. Just a few months ago, Scheffler injured his hand while attempting to make homemade ravioli. Now, he’s making sure it’s on the menu-though this time, he’ll leave the cooking to the professionals.
For the first course, Scheffler is swapping out his 2023 tortilla soup for something heartier: Texas-style chili. Then, it’s on to the main course-cowboy ribeye or blackened redfish, with sides like jalapeño creamed corn, mac & cheese, chipotle-lime roasted sweet potatoes, and soy-glazed Brussels sprouts.
Dessert? A warm chocolate chip skillet cookie with vanilla bean ice cream.
If that sounds familiar, it’s because it is. Scheffler’s 2023 menu was nearly identical, minus a few tweaks. But if it ain’t broke, why fix it?
A meal fit for a Masters Champion
The Champions Dinner, an Augusta National tradition since 1952, gives the defending winner the honor of setting the menu for past champions. Some players get creative-Hideki Matsuyama leaned into his Japanese heritage in 2022, while Dustin Johnson kept things ultra-American with pigs in a blanket in 2021.
Scheffler’s approach? Stick to what you love, make a couple of adjustments, and call it a day. And based on Spiranac’s reaction, it’s working.
The 2025 Masters kicks off on April 10, but before a single shot is hit, Scheffler and the legends of the game will sit down to enjoy a feast that’s as familiar as it is deliciou
