The two-time event champion committed to the 2026 WM Phoenix Open on Wednesday. Scheffler won at TPC Scottsdale in 2022 and 2023 and was third the following year before finishing 25th in 2025.
"Scottie has been a great champion and longtime supporter of the WM Phoenix Open and the entire community," tournament chairman Jason Eisenberg said in an announcement. "He earned his first career PGA Tour win here, (and) we are excited to welcome back to Scottsdale."
Scheffler most recently competed at the Hero World Challenge in December, tying for fourth in the Bahamas. His only other stroke-play event since the Tour Championship was a win at the Procore Championship ahead of the Ryder Cup -- his sixth victory of 2025 that included winning the PGA Championship and The Open Championship.
Thomas Detry is not expected to defend his Phoenix Open title from 2025 after reportedly signing with LIV Golf.
