Seventy-two holes couldn’t decide a winner at the Travelers Championship, Scottie Scheffler and Viktor Hovland tied with matching 21-under 259 totals when sunset arrived Sunday at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Conn. And so the No. 1- and No. 30-ranked players in the world returned to the course Monday to determine who would take home the $3.6 million first-place prize money payout in the final signature event on the PGA Tour in 2026.
A pop-up thunderstorm with the leaders playing the back nine forced an 83-minute weather delay late Sunday afternoon. And with the PGA Tour already scheduled for a 7 p.m. finish, when Scheffler holed an eight-footer for par on the 18th hole, tournament officials decided to carry sudden death over to Monday at 9 a.m.
It was there that Scheffler and Hovland both hit approach shots inside seven feet on the first extra hole. Hovland played first, rolling in his 6½-foot birdie putt. But Scheffler couldn’t follow suit, missing his 2½-foot try on the left edge.
This was Hovland’s eighth career PGA Tour win. And this marked Scheffler’s fourth runner-up in 2026 after a victory in his first start this year.
Below is the prize money payout for the rest of the field at the Travelers with first- and second-place money still up for grabs.
