Regular-season bonus pushes Scottie Scheffler’s earnings to eye-popping levels

Scottie Scheffler’s epic season just got even more lucrative.

The world No. 1 earned an extra $8 million Monday by finishing atop the standings in the Comcast Business Tour Top 10, which rewards the top players at the end of the PGA Tour’s regular season.

In tournament play, Scheffler has already earned $28.1 million so far this year. He is set to play the next two playoff events, both with a $20 million purse. The winner of the FedExCup earns a bonus of $25 million.

In his career, before bonuses, Scheffler has already topped $70 million.
