Plenty of dominant golfers on the PGA Tour have put together incredible performances without a major championship win. Xander Schauffele is one of those pros.
The 30-year-old American has been a staple on the PGA Tour for nearly a decade. He shot a 62 in the first round of the 2024 PGA Championship, matching a major record he already hit.
Will his strong start at Louisville's Valhalla Golf Club be enough for him to take home his first major title?
Schauffele's success in the early rounds at this year's PGA Championship is no surprise. He is known for getting out to hot starts, but he is equally as known for his cold finishes, which see him drop out of the top of the leaderboard by the time Sunday rolls around.
Such finishes are not only frustrating but come with financial repercussions. The higher you place in a tournament, the more money you take home. So Schauffele is seeing dollars drop along with his score.
How much money has Schauffele racked up in his career as a PGA Tour pro? The Sporting News has the answer.
