Scottie Scheffler's streak of 78 consecutive cuts came to an end at the Scottish Open, marking the first time since August 2022 that he left a PGA Tour event with a lighter wallet. However, this missed cut doesn't affect his position at the top of the PGA Tour money list.

Why it matters for Scottie Scheffler

Scheffler's earnings of over $15 million entering the British Open at Royal Birkdale keep him ahead of the competition. The top four spots on the money list remained unchanged, with Matt Fitzpatrick, Cameron Young, and Wyndham Clark holding their positions.

What comes next?

The British Open is set to take place from July 16-19 at Royal Birkdale. Scheffler will look to bounce back from his missed cut and maintain his lead on the PGA Tour money list. Meanwhile, other players like Tom Kim and Steven Fisk have moved up the ranks after their recent victories.

Scheffler's missed cut in the Scottish Open was a rare occurrence, but it didn't impact his position on the PGA Tour money list. He remains the top earner with over $15 million in earnings, and his lead is not threatened by his rivals. The British Open is just around the corner, and Scheffler will be looking to make a strong comeback and maintain his position at the top.

The top four spots on the money list remained unchanged, with Matt Fitzpatrick, Cameron Young, and Wyndham Clark holding their positions. Rory McIlroy tied for seventh and earned $270,675 to pass Collin Morikawa for fifth place. This shows that the competition is fierce, and Scheffler will need to perform well in the British Open to maintain his lead.

Tom Kim's victory in the Scottish Open moved him up 56 spots on the money list to 34th, with over $3.8 million in earnings. Steven Fisk, who won the ISCO Championship, earned $720,000 and jumped from 94th to 71st. Fisk also became one of the latest players on the Tour to surpass $1 million in earnings, a club that now numbers 94.
