A good Scout: Brother plus wedding and golf celebrant

The Straits Times

January 02, 2025

Maverick McNealy did not earn his first PGA Tour win until his youngest brother, Scout, started carrying his bag.

A good Scout: Brother plus wedding and golf celebrant

It turns out that McNealy's brother is good for more than just caddying, as Maverick revealed that Scout officiated at his wedding back in 2023.

"Maya and I got married last Dec 6," he said on Dec 31 ahead of the Jan 2-5 The Sentry in Kapalua, Hawaii. "It was just the two of us, our parents, photographer and officiant. We decided we wanted to get married before we could plan a party. Planned the party for the one-year anniversary. And had actually Scout officiated, which was cool."

So it is a family affair as Maverick McNealy embarks on the 2025 PGA Tour campaign with the limited-field, season-opening The Sentry.
