Frederik Schott (born 27 May 2001) is a German professional golfer and European Tour player.

Early life and amateur career

Schott was born in Düsseldorf and became a scratch golfer when he was just 13 years old. His mentor is Marcel Siem, whom he caddied for on the European Tour in 2020 to gain experience on tour.

Schott won several amateur events in North Rhine-Westphalia, and in 2019 he was runner-up at the German National Boys Championship, and the South African Juniors International.

He won silver for Germany at the 2019 European Boys' Team Championship at Golf de Chantilly in France, where he won his game with Tiger Christensen, 2 and 1, as Germany lost the final to France 5–2.

Professional career

Schott turned professional in 2021 and joined the Sunshine Tour, where his best finish was a tie for 7th at the Cape Town Open, before transitioning to the Challenge Tour. He also made a start on the third-tier Pro Golf Tour in the Netherlands, where he won the FaberExposize Gelpenberg Open wire-to-wire, his first professional title.

In 2022, Schott won the Frederikshavn Challenge in Denmark and recorded another six top-5 finishes to finish 9th in the rankings, and graduate to the European Tour for 2023.

In 2023, his rookie European Tour season, Schott recorded a season best tie for 10th at the Made in HimmerLand and finished 144th in the rankings. He topped the 2023 European Tour Qualifying School to keep full playing privileges. In 2024 he finished 117th in the rankings, and in 2025 102nd.
