Recap of Scottie Scheffler's 2024 season

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler has had a spectacular 2024 season.

He picked up seven PGA Tour titles, the Masters green jacket, Players Championship, the FedEx Cup as well as the Olympic gold medal this year. The 28-year-old was also a part of the winning US team at the Presidents Cup. With so many feathers to his cap, he was also named Player of the Year by the PGA Tour.

2024 was arguably one of the best seasons of his career so far. Going into the Tour Championship at East Lake, Scheffler was the top-ranked player in the FedEx Cup rankings. He also topped the money list this year having earned more than $29 million in in cash prizes alone.

Scheffler acknowledged the magnitude of his success this year after winning the Tour Championship in September. He said via Guardian:

"I feel like I’ve lived almost a full lifetime in this one year. It’s been nuts."

Here's a list of his earnings this year:

  • The Sentry: T5 ($690,500)
  • The American Express: T17 ($132,300)
  • AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am: T6 ($642,500)
  • WM Phoenix Open: T3 ($519,200)
  • The Genesis Invitational: T10 ($455,000)
  • Arnold Palmer Invitational pres. by Mastercard: 1 ($4,000,000)
  • THE PLAYERS Championship: 1 ($4,500,000)
  • Texas Children's Houston Open: T2 ($553,735)
  • Masters Tournament: 1 ($3,600,000)
  • RBC Heritage: 1 ($3,600,000)

  • BMW Championship: T33 ($119,667)
  • Tour Championship: 1 ($25,000,000)

His closest competitor throughout the season was compatriot Xander Schauffele. In fact, 2024 would have been Schauffele's year if only Scottie Scheffler hadn't put out the most extraordinary performances this season. As Northern Irish star Rory McIlroy said after the FedEx Cup (via Guardian):

"We’ll look back on 2024 and it’s obviously one of the best individual years that a player has had for a long time."

Scheffler will next be seen at the Hero World Challenge this week.
