Are you working this weekend?
Viktor Hovland it is. Likewise, 71 of his colleagues.
But don’t feel bad for them. What they will lack in free time, they will more than make up for in profit. They are playing in Travelers Championshipthe final signature event of the 2026 PGA Tour season, with a total purse of $20 million.
There is no cut. The guy who finishes dead last will take home $36,000. The winner will walk away with 100 times more: $3.6 million goes to the champion.
Heading into Sunday’s final round, Hovland is in pole position at 20-under for the week, one stroke clear of world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. Patrick Cantlay and Akshay Bhatia are tied for third, five off the pace.
Scheffler and Hovland will go into action together at 14:00 local time, when they will play in the final pairing. About five hours later, regardless of how they finish, they will receive a healthy payment for their efforts. The rest of the field won’t be deprived either, as you can see below, where we break down the entire bag for the 2026 Travelers Championship.
