Scottie Scheffler wins the Tour Championship and, in doing so, overtakes Tiger Woods for the top spot on the PGA Tour career money list. Multiple outlets report that Scheffler’s performance at the Tour Championship gives him enough earnings to move ahead of Woods and become the tour’s all-time leading prize-money earner.
Outlets also note that Scheffler begins the final day needing a strong result, starting three strokes back. CBS Sports and Yahoo Sports add that he wins the FedEx Cup along with the Tour Championship, marking his second season-long FedEx Cup title and his second Tour Championship win. The New York Post and Yahoo Sports cite Scheffler’s career total surpassing $130 million, while The Athletic reports that he is set to take the No. 1 position with any finish in the top 13. ABC Australia focuses on the combination of the Tour Championship victory and the career earnings milestone, while mentioning Min Woo Lee ties for fourth, as part of the event’s broader leaderboard context.
