Hank Haney, former coach of Tiger Woods, responded to a recently resurfaced video showing Woods offering crucial guidance to Scottie Scheffler. The clip, shared by Nuclr Golf on Wednesday, highlights Woods sharing tips that could impact Scheffler’s game strategy.
In 2023, Woods teamed up with Scottie Scheffler, Collin Morikawa, and Tommy Fleetwood to film a TaylorMade promotional video. This footage was brought back into the spotlight by Nuclr Golf, who captioned the clip with a quote from Woods:
“When I’m flushing it I don’t take divots… it just is what it is.” – Tiger Woods
Hank Haney reshared this video on his social media, adding a brief but telling comment about Woods’ consistent performance:
“He flushed it a lot
Haney and Woods had a notable partnership during their time together, and although Woods has stepped away from most professional tournaments recently, his influence remains significant. The 15-time major champion last competed on the PGA Tour at The Open Championship 2024 before undergoing surgery earlier this year to repair a ruptured left Achilles tendon.
Woods has since focused on rehabilitation with hopes of returning to competitive golf. The upcoming Open Championship in 2025, set for July 17 to 20, could potentially mark his comeback, but only time will reveal his readiness to compete again at this level.
Meanwhile, Scottie Scheffler has continued to build on his successful career by winning the 2025 PGA Championship, marking his third major victory. Recently, Scheffler finished tied for sixth at the 2025 Travelers Championship after rounds of 62, 69, 72, and 65.
Beyond major championships, Scheffler claimed titles at The CJ Cup, the Byron Nelson, and the Memorial Tournament, while also securing a runner-up finish at the Texas Children’s Houston Open. His steady performance this season demonstrates his rising prominence in professional golf.
Hank Haney highlights a viral tennis play post
On June 29, The Kitchen Pickleball uploaded a clip showcasing former American tennis player Jack Sock’s remarkable shot on X, formerly known as Twitter. Haney reposted this video on his own account, showcasing his engagement with moments of athletic excellence beyond golf.
Haney maintains an active presence on social media, where he shares advice and commentary with his approximately 146,300 followers. Woods also remains engaged on these platforms; last month, he publicly congratulated Brian Rolapp on becoming the PGA Tour’s new CEO and expressed gratitude for his predecessor.
“Congrats to Brian on becoming CEO of the PGA TOUR. I’m excited about where the TOUR is headed. And a big thank you to Jay for everything he’s done for our game and for the players and fans.”
Woods was also recently seen supporting his son Charlie at a junior golf championship, emphasizing his continued dedication to the sport and family.
The renewed attention on Woods’ advice to Scottie Scheffler highlights the lasting impact of his expertise on the game. As Scheffler advances with multiple wins and Woods pursues recovery, the interaction between golf’s generations remains a compelling storyline. Fans and analysts alike await Woods’ potential return and the influence his guidance may continue to have on players like Scheffler in upcoming tournaments.
