Scottie Scheffler just sealed his place at the top of the FedExCup standings with a win at the St. Jude Championship, locking in a $23 million bonus — and he’s not even playing in the final event yet. The PGA TOUR has flipped the script this year by eliminating the starting strokes format for the TOUR Championship, leveling the field and handing out nearly $100 million in bonuses based on season-long performance. Second place nets $13 million, third gets $8 million, and even the 30th-place qualifier walks away with $460K. Add to that the $40 million TOUR Championship purse plus an extra $10 million for the winner, and Atlanta is suddenly the richest golf stage on the planet — rewarding consistency, grit, and every player who dared to chase greatness all year long.
