Scheffler wins Tour Championship, passes Woods in earnings

Published 30 August 2026

Scottie Scheffler completed a remarkable comeback on Sunday to win the Tour Championship, securing his second FedEx Cup title and surpassing Tiger Woods for the most career earnings in PGA Tour history. The world's top-ranked golfer fired a final-round 4-under-par 66 at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta to erase a three-stroke deficit and claim victory by three shots. Scheffler began the final round trailing overnight leader Viktor Hovland but quickly turned the tournament in his favor. A precise 5-iron on the 211-yard second hole stopped just inches from the cup, setting up a birdie that ignited his rally.
