It pays to play well on the PGA Tour, especially at designated events. Just ask this week’s winner, Scottie Scheffler.
The 26-year-old earned his fifth PGA Tour win Sunday with his title defense at the 2023 WM Phoenix Open, the first full-field designated event of the season. Scheffler finished at 19 under to take home the top prize of $3.6 million and leapfrog Phil Mickelson for the most money won at the Phoenix Open.

Nick Taylor’s quest for a third win on Tour came up short, but the Canadian will leave TPC Scottsdale with $2.18 million, nearly $700,000 more than what Scheffler pocketed for winning the Phoenix Open a year ago.
Desert fan-favorite and former Arizona State star Jon Rahm finished third and earned $1.38 million.
Check out how much money each PGA Tour player earned this week at the 2023 WM Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale.
