Tranlate this title Matt Fitzpatrick, $29 million season. For now in spanish

Having won the historic 108th French Open in style—setting a new record on the Albatros course (-20)—Matt Fitzpatrick, a three-time PGA Tour winner this year, is truly «breaking the bank.» And he still has the two major playoff tournaments scheduled for early November in the Emirates left to play.

Matt Fitzpatrick, results

Regardless of what happens next, 2026 will go down as a banner year for Matt Fitzpatrick. Three PGA Tour victories—including a playoff win over Scottie Scheffler at a Signature Event (the RBC Heritage)—numerous high finishes, and, of course, that triumph at the French Open. That covers the sporting side of things.

Financially, the picture is even more impressive. With a season that has so far yielded $29 million in tournament earnings, the Englishman has propelled himself into the ranks of the highest earners in PGA Tour history, according to our colleagues at *Golf Monthly*. Specifically, he now sits in 67th place among players with the most career earnings on the world’s most competitive professional circuit. He ranks ahead of legends such as Mike Weir, Padraig Harrington, Mark Calcavecchia, Fred Couples, and David Duval.

After collecting a $3 million check at the DP World Tour Championship in November 2025—following a playoff victory over Rory McIlroy—the Sheffield native quickly hit his stride in 2026, stringing together a series of top-tier performances.

9th at the WM Phoenix Open ($280,800); 2nd at The Players Championship ($2,725,000); winner of the Valspar Championship ($1,638,000). Winner of the RBC Heritage: $3,600,000. He repeated the feat the following week at the Zurich Classic, this time alongside his brother Alex: $1,372,750. Two top-20 finishes—at the Masters (18th) and the PGA Championship (14th)—also earned him $315,000 and $364,762, respectively.

He then banked $1,068,200 for his second-place finish at the RBC Canadian Open, followed by $960,000 for fourth place at the Travelers Championship and another $431,887 for third place at the Genesis Scottish Open. Across the season’s final three events—the PGA Tour playoffs—Matt Fitzpatrick amassed a total of $930,321, with his best result in that trio being a 12th-place finish at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Added to this is a massive $13 million bonus, resulting from his second-place standing in the FedEx Cup rankings heading into the Atlanta finale, which featured the season’s top 30 players.

He collected his final big paycheck this Sunday, September 27, by winning the French Open: $637,500 (€560,429). This windfall also delighted his technical team, particularly his caddie, Daniel Parratt. According to *Golf Monthly*, Parratt has reportedly already earned over $2 million in bonuses. However, that is far less than the staggering sum Ted Scott pocketed in 2024 working for Scottie Scheffler—who won eight times on the PGA Tour that year, including the Players Championship, the Masters, and the Tour Championship: over $5 million!
