After the second Major of the year, the PGA Championship, the regular PGA Tour season resumes with the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club in Texas.
The 2024 event saw Davis Riley claim his first maiden individual title on the PGA Tour, beating Keegan Bradley and Scottie Scheffler by five. For that achievement, Riley, who also won the 2023 Zurich Classic of New Orleans alongside teammate Nick Hardy, claimed prize money of $1.638m from the $9.1m purse, but there’s more to play for this year.
An overall payout of $9.5m is on the table, meaning the winner will bank $1.71m, the same figure as the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, while the runner-up is set for over $1m.
Other incentives include FedEx Cup points, with 500 available to the winner as players continue their season-long battle to reach the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
Check out the prize money payout for the Charles Schwab Challenge.

Who Are The Star Names In The Charles Schwab Challenge?
Davis Riley defends his title in the Texas tournament

The headliner is Scottie Scheffler, who plays in his home state just days after winning his third Major title at the PGA Championship.
That five-shot victory sent an ominous warning to his rivals, particularly after it followed another dominant display with his first win of the year at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson.
