Scheffler Secures $10 Million Bonus as PGA Tour Regular Season Concludes
World number one Scottie Scheffler has claimed the top spot in the PGA Tour’s regular-season FedExCup standings, locking in a substantial $10 million bonus. This marks the fourth time in the last five years that Scheffler has finished the regular season at the summit of the points list.
While this payout is significant, it is considered unofficial money and does not count toward the season’s official earnings statistics. The bonus pool for the regular season distributed a total of $20 million among the top 10 finishers. Matt Fitzpatrick followed Scheffler in second place, earning $4 million, while Cameron Young took third with $1.2 million.
The distribution highlights a shift in the Tour’s bonus structure. The release notes that the previous Comcast Business top 10 bonus, which historically paid out an additional $40 million, is no longer in effect. Comcast Corporation, the media and technology giant, remains a central figure in the sports landscape through its connectivity and media segments.
Looking ahead, the focus shifts to the playoffs, where a separate pool of nearly $100 million in bonus money is at stake. This upcoming total does not include official tournament earnings and will be awarded across the playoff events.
The remainder of the top 10 regular-season bonus payouts included Wyndham Clark ($1 million), Chris Gotterup ($800,000), Collin Morikawa ($700,000), Si Woo Kim ($650,000), Sam Burns ($600,000), Tommy Fleetwood ($550,000), and Ludvig Åberg ($500,000).
What to watch
- The three-event FedExCup Playoffs begin shortly, featuring nearly $100 million in additional bonus funds.
- Scheffler attempts to convert his regular-season dominance into a FedExCup title.
