The 82-time PGA Tour winner made a combined $45 million from the program over the past four years. Former Barstool Sports’ ForePlay podcast’s Daniel Rapaport gave fans an insight into the stat.
“Tiger Woods made a combined $45 million over 4 years from the PGA Tour’s Player Impact Program, which will be shut down after this year. He played a combined 10 PGA Tour events over that period. $4.5 million per start, just from the PIP.”
“Scottie Scheffler won 9 times, including the Masters and a Gold Medal, got arrested between the first and second round of a major championship, starred in some of the best memes all year, held world No. 1 for the entirety of 2024…and didn’t win the Player Impact Program.”
