Wyndham Clark secured the biggest paycheck of the week after winning the 2026 CJ Cup Byron Nelson at TPC Craig Ranch. He earned $1,854,000 after shooting a stunning 30-under-par 254 and closing with an 11-under 60 on Sunday.

The victory marked the fifth PGA Tour title of his career and his first win since Pebble Beach in 2024. Clark overtook Si Woo Kim and pulled away from hometown favorite Scottie Scheffler during a scorching back-nine run.

Clark entered the final round tied near the lead alongside Scheffler but didn't officially grab the outright advantage until an eagle on the par-5 12th hole. From there, he never looked back.

The 32-year-old posted a back-nine 28 and drained multiple clutch birdie putts over the closing stretch, including a 45-footer at the par-3 15th that sparked an emotional fist pump.

Si Woo Kim falls short after strong start, finishing with a 65 but three shots behind Clark in second place. Scottie Scheffler unable to defend title, carding a 65 and finishing at 25-under, tied for third.

Full 2026 CJ Cup Byron Nelson payout breakdown: Clark takes home $1.85M, with Kim earning $1.12M and Scheffler $0.71M.
