[ad_1]
Scottie Scheffler earned an $8 million bonus for finishing No. 1 in the Comcast Business Tour Top 10 for the 2024 regular season PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup.
It is the second No. 1 finish in three years for the 28-year-old, who won the tour this season before taking gold at the Paris Olympics.
“It’s been an unbelievable year for me both on and off the course, so to end the regular season with a top spot in the Comcast Business Tour Top 10 is an honor,” said Scheffler. “Every year I try to do well and compete to the best of my ability, so this award represents the hard work done throughout the season with the support of my family and the team.”
Xander Schauffele finished second and earned a $6 million bonus after picking up his first two wins at the PGA Championship and The Open. Rory McIlroy ($4.8M) finished third, with Collin Morikawa ($4.4M) and Wyndham Clark ($4M) rounding out the top five.
Scheffler’s six victories include four signature events and his second grand slam win at The Masters. He was the first golfer to win six or more tournaments in a season since Tiger Woods in 2009.
“Scottie Scheffler’s season has been incredible — including a historic victory at The Players Championship and now winning the Comcast Business Tour Top 10,” said Eileen Diskin, chief marketing officer for Comcast Business. “We are delighted to see him on top of the leaderboard along with all the top athletes who have earned their spots this year.”
