Bryson DeChambeau, Matt Wolff & Collin Morikawa Career Earnings

DeChambeau is the highest-earner among the trio of first-place contenders. According to his PGA Tour profile, the 25-year-old has already raked in $12,846,406. This number bumps up to $13,748,267 when you reference Yahoo Sports, which adds his time on the European Tour.

His biggest paychecks have come courtesy of his three PGA Tour wins. He earned just over $1 million at the 2017 John Deere Classic, $1.6 million at the 2018 Memorial Tournament and $1.26 million for the 2019 Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

He ranks No. 27 on this year’s PGA Tour Money List with $2,458,242 made over 15 tournaments. Neither Morikawa nor Wolff appear on ESPN’s list.

Wolff only turned pro this past June. He was the NCAA individual champion at Oklahoma State last season, as well as an NCAA All-American as a freshman. After tying for 80th at the Traveler’s Championship last month, he missed the cut at last week’s Rocket Mortage Classic.

This has netted him $12,888, so far. With his past success in college, the 20-year-old has potential to sit near the top of many leaderboards down the road.

Morikawa also turned pro in 2019, starting his career at the RBC Canadian Open last June. He has made all three cuts at RBC, Traveler’s and Rocket Mortage. This success has already led to $215,704.

Interestingly enough, all three golfers are California natives. DeChambeau is from Modesto near the Bay Area, while Morikawa and Wolff are from suburbs of Los Angeles.
