The numbers behind Scottie Scheffler’s historic 2024: Nine wins, one shocking arrest… and $10m in crypto

Scottie Scheffler’s 2024 season was remarkable, with seven PGA Tour victories, including his second Masters title and a gold medal at the Paris Olympics.

In December, Scheffler and Rory McIlroy triumphed in The Showdown, an exhibition match against Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau. Their victory earned them a $10 million prize in cryptocurrency, sponsored by Crypto.com.

Scheffler’s success translated into substantial earnings, with over $60 million in total, including bonuses. This financial achievement underscores his dominance in the sport throughout the year.

Despite a brief controversy during the PGA Championship, where he was arrested after a traffic incident, Scheffler’s performance remained exceptional. He continued to compete at the highest level, finishing the tournament tied for 8th place.
