Tiger Woods was 24 and going for his seventh straight win when he tied for second at Torrey Pines. The check was $264,000. It made him the PGA Tour's all-time money leader, which ******* ody really thought much about at the time. It was Feb. 13, 2000.
He never moved from atop that list. Even through the swing changes, the surgeries and the years he barely played at all.
Woods was the all-time earnings leader for over 26 years, until Sunday.
Scottie Scheffler took that ******* le from him Sunday afternoon in Atlanta. It took him less than a decade.
Scheffler began the final round of the Tour Championship three shots behind, but passed Viktor Hovland on the back nine and won his second FedEx Cup. The win was worth $10 million and it moved him to $130,390,661 for his career. Woods sits at $120, 999,166.
