Scottie Scheffler wins PGA Tour Championship, Min Woo Lee ties fourth
Adam Scott has had to settle for yet another cool milestone as Scottie Scheffler surpassed Tiger Woods as the PGA Tour's all-time leading prize-money earner with his second season-long FedEx Cup crown.
Scottie Scheffler claimed a thrilling three-shot victory at the PGA Tour Championship, edging out Australian Min Woo Lee by a margin of five strokes. The tournament, held in Atlanta, saw Scheffler notch a final round four-under-par 66, while Lee posted a two-under-par 68 to finish tied for fourth. Adam Scott, who had previously won the event in 2006, finished tied for 11th, six shots behind Scheffler.
This win propelled Scheffler past Tiger Woods as the PGA Tour's all-time leading prize-money earner, with $130,390,661 in earnings during his seventh season on the tour. Lee, a debutant at the Tour Championship, tied for fourth with Scott, along with England's Alex Fitzpatrick, Americans Jacob Bridgeman, Russell Henley, and Chris Gotterup, as well as McIlroy and Swede Ludvig Aberg.
Despite starting three shots behind Min Woo Lee and Adam Scott in joint third place, Scheffler closed the gap to claim his third consecutive FedEx Cup title.
