Scottie Scheffler wasted no time picking up a win in 2026.
The top-ranked golfer in the world ran away from the rest of the field at The American Express on Sunday afternoon to pick up a win in his first start of the new PGA Tour season. Scheffler posted a 6-under 66 in the final round to get to 27-under on the week, which secured the four-shot win.

The win gave Scheffler a $1.656 million check — which pushed him past the $100 million mark. Only two other golfers, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, have earned more on the PGA Tour. Woods is the Tour’s money list leader with just shy of $121 million earned.
Jason Day posted an 8-under 64 on Sunday to join the group at 23-under to tie for second. He matched Ryan Gerard, Matt McCarty and Andrew Putnam there. Blades Brown, the 18-year-old who nearly shot a 59 in the second round, finished in T18 at 19-under.
Scheffler has now won 20 times in his career, 14 of which have come in the last three seasons alone.
Here’s a look at how much Scheffler and the rest of the field earned at The American Express this weekend.
