At the final Signature Event of 2026, the Travelers Championship, a Monday playoff was required to separate Scottie Scheffler and Viktor Hovland.
The two Ryder Cup rivals tied on 21-under through 72 holes last week, but poor weather and fading light on Sunday ensured they were required to return to the course at TPC River Highlands early on Monday.
It only took one extra hole to decide who lifted the trophy, with Viktor Hovland sinking a birdie putt to claim his eighth PGA Tour title and first since the 2025 Valspar Championship.
As with each of the eight Signature Events played in 2026, there was a $20 million tournament purse on the line.
While the three player-hosted events featured a cut and a $4 million prize for the champion, the Travelers Championship saw everyone involved take home a check for at least $40,000 and Hovland scoop $3.6 million.
And although there was disappointment for Scheffler in terms of the trophy, his latest runner-up result helped him claim more than $2 million, almost $1 million more than Collin Morikawa in third place.
Everyone who finished T30th or better, meanwhile, earned in excess of $117,000 before various factors affect how much they actually take home.
Below is the full prize money payout for each player and position at the 2026 Travelers Championship.
