Scottie Scheffler ran away from the field on Sunday afternoon at Augusta National.
The world’s top-ranked golfer cruised to a dominant four-shot win to claim his second career Masters title without any issue. He posted a final-round 68, and held on as Collin Morikawa, Max Homa and Ludvig Aberg — who were tied with him at the top briefly before making the turn — all slipped away. It marked his ninth career win on the PGA Tour, his third victory this season and his second major championship title.
As a result, Scheffler took home $3.6 million — which is $360,000 more than Jon Rahm earned last year for his win. Aberg earned $2.16 million for his runner-up finish, too, which is an incredible paycheck for his first ever major championship appearance. The Masters had a $20 million purse this week, which is a record for the major and $2 million more than last season.
Here’s a look at how much Scheffler the rest of the field earned this week at Augusta National.
