With over half of the PGA Tour Champions season in the books, the race to the Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs is heating up. And while the money pales in comparison to that earned on the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, the winnings are still sizable.
Stewart Cink and Zach Johnson have been the biggest winners on the senior circuit this season, entering the week as the only multiple winners on PGA Tour Champions in 2026, with four victories and three victories, respectively. A dozen of the 28 sanctioned events have taken place thus far. All five senior majors are also in the books.

Last year, Cink finished the season with just over $3.2 million in earnings, slightly more than Angel Jimenez ($3.17) and Steven Alker ($3.16M). And while Cink has a commanding lead at this point, there are still plenty of events left on the schedule.
