Record-Breaking Payouts at the 2024 Tour Championship: Who Took Home the Cash?

The 2024 Tour Championship, held at East Lake Golf Club, set a record with its $100 million FedEx Cup bonus pool, marking a $25 million increase from the previous year. The event saw the top 30 players of the PGA Tour competing for substantial financial rewards, with the winner’s share alone totaling $25 million, the largest in PGA Tour history. This year’s victor will earn $7 million more than the previous two seasons’ champions and $10 million more compared to the inaugural staggered start format in 2019.

Scottie Scheffler emerged as the standout player this season, surpassing $25 million in earnings after clinching victories at the Masters, Players Championship, and four signature events. Xander Schauffele also had a remarkable year with two major wins, coming close to $20 million in total earnings. Other notable players earning over $10 million this season included Hideki Matsuyama, Wyndham Clark, and Rory McIlroy.

In a thrilling final showdown, Scheffler and Collin Morikawa engaged in a close contest, with Scheffler ultimately finishing at 30 under to secure his seventh PGA Tour title. Every player in the top five received a minimum of $5 million as a bonus, and all competitors at the Tour Championship were guaranteed at least $500,000 for their performance.
