Men's world number one golfer Scottie Scheffler has won the final event of the PGA Tour playoffs, surpassing the legendary Tiger Woods' record for the most career earnings in tour history.
Trailing the leader by three strokes heading into the third round, Scheffler orchestrated a comeback victory with fierce concentration.
The par-3 2nd hole was the highlight.
His tee shot from a distance of 192 meters nearly went straight in for a hole-in-one.
Shooting four under par on the final day, Scheffler secured a three-stroke victory at 16 under par overall.
Adding a massive 10 million dollars, or 13.7 billion won, in prize money to surpass 130 million dollars in total career earnings on the PGA Tour, Scheffler overtook Woods—who had held the top spot for 26 years—to become number one of all time.
Kim Si-woo, who has shown stellar performance this season, wrapped up the final playoff event on a high note.
Sinking a thrilling shot eagle from a distance of 110 meters to finish tied for 14th, Kim became the first South Korean player to surpass 10 million dollars in single-season earnings.
