British Open Payout Breakdown – Xander Schauffele put an exclamation point on Sunday with a final-round 65 at Royal Troon, pulling away from a crowded leaderboard to win his second major championship of the season. Schauffele finished the week at 9-under 275, two strokes clear of Justin Rose and Billy Horschel, adding a claret jug to his Wanamaker Trophy from this year’s PGA Championship at Valhalla.
Schauffele, 30, trailed 54-hole leader Horschel by one into the final day on the Scottish seaside links, and the San Diego State alum turned in a championship-worthy performance with Sunday’s low score by two strokes. The world No. 3 hung tough in Saturday’s heavy rains with a 2-under 69 to remain near the lead, and he took advantage of Sunday’s gentler conditions with six birdies and no bogeys, including a flawless 4-under 31 on the final nine.
Schauffele becomes the first player to win two majors in a season since 2018 and moves closer to Scottie Scheffler in the conversation for the world’s best player. As an eighth-year PGA TOUR member, he has clearly earned the title of Champion Golfer of the Year.
He recently secured a significant payout, making him a $50 million-man. He clinched his second major title of the year at the British Open, taking home the first-place prize of $3.1 mi🃏llion. Thi🥀s victory landed him among the top 20 all-time money winners on the PGA Tour. With a score of 9 under for the week, he surpassed Justin Rose (No. 9 on the career money list with over $64 million) and Billy Horschel (No. 32 with $39 million) by two shots.
This win brought Schauffele’s career earnings to $54,777,483, placing him at No. 15 on the career Tour money🗹 list, overtaking Jon Rahm, Hideki Matsuyama, and Rickie Fowler. Schauffele also claimed the🦋 PGA Championship in May, earning his first major championship title.
