Tiger Woods' $120,999,166 record is about to fall. But it's not a fair fight

Scottie Scheffler's pursuit of Tiger Woods' career-earnings haul is a hot topic this week.

Tiger Woods' $120,999,166 record is about to fall. But it's not a fair fight

Tiger Woods and Scottie Scheffler were at the 2025 Hero World Challenge. When Scottie Scheffler says he's a rich man, he's not referring to his bank account. He's talking about his family, faith, and golf. The PGA Tour's FedEx Cup playoffs, the BMW Championship, is where Scheffler is on the verge of surpassing Tiger Woods as the Tour's all-time leading money earner.

Woods has 82 victories, while Scheffler has 21. Over the first seven seasons of their careers, both golfers had similar number of top-10 finishes. If Scheffler finishes top-10 either this week or next, he will take Tiger Woods' record.
