Scheffler brought home the majority of $62 million, another green jacket and an Olympic gold medal -- all in six months
There has never been another golf season like the one Scottie Scheffler put together in 2024. There have been better seasons and ones in which golfers put together longer lists of accomplishments -- more major championships, more PGA Tour events won. But in terms of the unique nature of an entire year, nothing like what Scheffler accomplished has ever happened before. What is the simplest way to sum up your year?
Let's start with the wins. Scottie Scheffler: "I mean, pretty fun. Yeah."
Scheffler totaled eight overall victories with the sport's two primary bodies each recognizing seven. He won seven tournaments on the PGA Tour, though the Tour Championship is not counted by the Official World Golf Rankings. He also captured an Olympic gold medal in Paris, which the OWGR acknowledges as a victory while the PGA Tour does not.
