Scottie Scheffler matches Tiger Woods as the only PGA Tour players to pull off this incredible scoring feat

Scottie Scheffler Is Very Close to Breaking Crazy Tiger Woods Record as New Stat Surfaces

Scottie Scheffler’s golf resume has been nothing but remarkable. The World No. 1 has dominated the PGA Tour this season with six wins. Scheffler especially thrives under pressure, showcasing flawless ball striking and a calm presence. Right from his old days at Texas to wearing the green jacket twice, his journey showcases that discipline and talent can redefine greatness. Now, Scheffler is set to create yet another milestone, one that Tiger Woodshad set.

A recent Instagram post showcased the all-time PGA Tour money leaders. Scheffler’s earnings have surged to $99 million, which is close to Wood’s record $120 million. In only a few seasons, Scheffler is leading with the numbers and is ahead of legends like Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson. At this pace, the 29-year-old might just break Woods’ record, cementing his place among golf’s most dominant forces.

Scheffler’s streak this year has been extraordinary. He has won the title at the Masters, the Players, and the Arnold Palmer Invitational, while also finishing in the top 10 in almost every start. His focus off the tee and precision have made him the man to beat week after week. Scheffler plans to return to action at the Procore Championship, focusing on closing the year with another victory to his name.

Meanwhile, his steady climb up the PGA Tour’s all-time money list puts his success in perspective. Rory McIlroy, sitting at $107 million, remains one of the few ahead of him. Meanwhile, Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson trail at $96 million and $75 million, respectively. Yet, none have matched Scheffler’s pace of earning. The American has achieved nearly $100 million in record time.

Scheffler’s story goes back to Ridgewood, New Jersey and where he learned golf at the age of three in Dallas, Texas. Having supportive parents helped him to go for junior tournaments, learning early lessons of discipline. He became a collegiate star at the University of Texas and earned his PGA Tour card in 2019.

His rise has been fast since then. Now, with nearly $100 million in career earnings, the kid who once practiced under Texas sunsets stands on the verge of surpassing Tiger Woods’ legendary record.

Scottie Scheffler is Redefining Golf’s Financial Game

With six wins already this year, Scottie Scheffler is racing toward a financial threshold that few in golf have even threatened. In addition to his dominance on the course, he is something of a phenomenon off it in endorsements and bonuses. As the sport’s money engines are starting to rev, his ascent could announce a new benchmark for elite players.

He’s not just winning tournaments. He’s winning the game of golf as well. With prize money, bonus structures, and endorsement deals all in place, Scheffler is constructing a ledger that extends well beyond yellow jackets and trophies.

Scheffler’s story isn’t one of sudden fame. Scheffler turned pro in 2018 and climbed his way up, season by season, until he reached world number one. By mid-2025, he’d already earned about $27.7 million on the course, plus another $23 million in bonuses. Add deals with Nike, TaylorMade, and Rolex, and his estimated net worth has crossed $100 million.

In modern golf, a single win can shift millions of dollars. Scheffler sits right where sport meets business. His results prove that talent still matters most. But in today’s world, it’s magnified by media attention and global sponsorships.

Scottie Scheffler equals stunning Tiger Woods feat in perfect Ryder Cup warm-up

Death, taxes and Scottie Scheffler winning a PGA Tour event.

This time, it was the Procore Championship in Arizona that bore witness to Scheffler’s dominance.

Scheffler took home first place and a tidy $1.08million (£795k) pay day thanks to a final score of -19.

The American finished one stroke ahead of fellow countryman and Ryder Cup teammate Ben Griffin, who was chasing his third win of the year on the PGA Tour.

What Woods feat did Scheffler match?

Instead, Scheffler’s win in Arizona marked his sixth triumph this season and 19th on the PGA Tour overall.

By doing so, Scheffler has now scooped at least six victories on the PGA Tour for two seasons on the trot.

The only other man to have accomplished the feat of accruing six or more PGA Tour titles across multiple seasons since 1983 is, of course, the legendary Tiger Woods.

Woods is also some way ahead of Scheffler when it comes to six or more wins in a single season, having accomplished the feat a staggering six times.

It didn’t look as if Scheffler would join Woods in the exclusive club given he was as many as eight shots behind Griffin ahead of the second round at the Procore Championship.

But, as he has done so often, Scheffler roared back with scores of four-under and eight-under in the second and third rounds respectively.

A final round of five-under from the 28-year-old completed Scheffler’s charge to the title, as Griffin watched his lead slip away after scores of two-under in the third and final rounds.

“I knew I was going to have to have another really good day,” Scheffler said.

“I was chasing down some pretty talented guys on the leaderboard.

“Fortunate to be the winner this week.”

Scheffler’s – and Griffin’s for that matter – attention now switches to the Ryder Cup, which tees off on September 26 at Bethpage Black in New York.

How did the US Ryder Cup stars perform at the Procore Championship?

The duo were among ten of the American Ryder Cup team to compete at the Procore Championship, with Xander Schauffele absent due to the birth of his son.

Scheffler, Griffin, J.J. Spaun and Cameron Young all ended up in the top ten, with the remainder of the US Ryder Cup contingent finishing between 13th and 69th.

Despite the wide-ranging results, Scheffler was pleased the majority of the team were able to congregate in Arizona and have one final hit-out at a tournament before golf’s premier team competition gets underway.

“I think we’re all excited for the Ryder Cup to get here,” Scheffler said.

“This was a big step for us, getting all the guys together for this tournament to stay sharp and get ready.

“I’m excited to get started.”
