  "account": "Scottie Scheffler claimed victory at the PGA Tour Championship by a three-shot margin, after posting a final round score of four-under-par 66. Australian Min Woo Lee tied for fourth place, finishing five shots behind the winner. Former champion Adam Scott, who had previously won the tournament in 2006, finished tied for 11th, six shots behind Scheffler. This marked the second consecutive year that Scheffler had secured the FedEx Cup title, ultimately surpassing Tiger Woods' record as the all-time leading prize-money earner on the PGA Tour. The 2024 champion's impressive second season-long victory at the $40 million Tour Championship in Atlanta further solidified his status as the undisputed world number one. Scheffler's remarkable $130.39 million in earnings in just his seventh season on the PGA Tour surpassed Woods' total of $120.99 million. Min Woo Lee, a 2023 Tour Championship winner, finished tied for fourth after a closing two-under-par 68.",
  "summary": "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.",
