Nearly $100 million will be paid out in FedExCup bonus money after the BMW Championship.
Scottie Scheffler has already secured the lion’s share, having wrapped up the No. 1 spot after winning last week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship. Scheffler earned a total of $23 million in bonus money, including $22 million up front and $1 million deferred.
The PGA Tour’s restructured FEC bonus system includes points carrying over from the regular season and first playoff event. Scheffler led through the Wyndham Championship and dominated at St. Jude.
Points reset for the playoff finale, the Tour Championship, where the winner will be crownded FedExCup champion and earn $10 million from an official $40 million purse.
But while Scheffler couldn’t be caught atop the standings before the points window closed, there has been plenty to play for in the second playoff event.
No. 2 on the list — Matthew Fitzpatrick, entering the week — will earn a total of $13 million. Solo 50th will get a combined $275,000. And there’s tens of millions up for grabs in between. Players who finished 51-125 in points each earned from $195,000 to $100,000. Here’s a breakdown of the bonus-pool payout for the top 50:
