PGA Tour money list: Who are the top earners at TPC San Antonio for the Valero Texas Open?
It's the week before the Masters Tournament and most of the PGA Tour money leaders are taking the week off to rest or prepare for the season's first major championship.
That accounts for the fact that only a dozen players among the top 30 on the money list are in the field this week for the Valero Texas Open, which begins on Thursday at the TPC San Antonio Oaks Course.

Ludvig Åberg, fourth on the money list with $4,956,223, is the highest-ranked player in the tournament, followed by No. 6 Hideki Matsuyama ($4,464,913) and No. 9 Corey Conners ($3,452,581).
Ludvig Aberg is the highest-ranked player on the PGA Tour money list in the field for this week's Valero Texas Open.
Can anyone catch money leader Rory McIlroy?
Åberg is more than $4 million behind McIlroy and can't catch him by winning the first-place check of $1,710,000. However, he could climb to second with a victory, passing Collin Morikawa and Russell Henley. Matsuyama also can get to second place by winning at San Antonio.
Conners can climb as high as fourth with a victory, provided Åberg misses the cut or makes $206,358 or less.

Rory McIlroy Shares Troubling Message Ahead of U.S. Open
Rory McIlroy Shares Troubling Message Ahead of U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After a two-week hiatus from the PGA Tour following the PGA Championship, Rory McIlroy returned to action this week at the RBC Canadian Open—but his time in the tournament was short-lived. Advertisement McIlroy struggled mightily over both rounds, never finding a consistent rhythm across the 36 holes he played. He ultimately missed the cut—and by a wide margin. The 2025 Masters champion shot a 71 on Thursday followed by a disappointing 78 on Friday, finishing at nine-over par. The cut line stood at two-under. Now, with a chance to regroup ahead of the third major of the year—the U.S. Open at Oakmont—McIlroy offered a concerning message about his performance in Canada. "Of course it concerns me," McIlroy said on Friday after his round. "You don't want to shoot high scores like the one I did today. Still, I felt like I came here obviously with a new driver thinking that that sort of was going to be good and solve some of the problems off the tee, but it didn't."He continued, "Obviously, going to Oakmont next week, what you need to do more than anything else there is hit fairways. Still sort of searching for the sort of missing piece off the tee." Rory McIlroy lines up his tee shot on the 14th tee during the final round of the PGA Championship golf tournament at Quail Doster-Imagn Images Rory McIlroy has had an outstanding year by any measure. His most significant achievement came at Augusta National, where he captured his first Masters title and completed the career Grand Slam. He also added victories at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Players Championship to round out an impressive season. Advertisement However, in comments this week, McIlroy admitted that maintaining motivation has been a challenge since his win at Augusta. After chasing the Masters for more than a decade, he said it's been difficult to find that extra edge and drive to compete at the same level. "I would certainly say that the last few weeks—I've had a couple of weeks off—and going and grinding on the range for three or four hours everyday is maybe a little tougher than it used to be," he told reporters. "You have this event in your life that you've worked towards and it happens, sometimes it's hard to find the motivation to get back on the horse and go again."

Justin Thomas Sends Strong Message About Scottie Scheffler Ahead of U.S. Open
Justin Thomas Sends Strong Message About Scottie Scheffler Ahead of U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The third major of the year is set to begin on Thursday, and with players already arriving at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania, media duties have begun for many on the PGA Tour. Advertisement One player who spoke to the media was Justin Thomas, who has put together a solid 2025 campaign so far and will look to find success on the challenging Oakmont course. His best finish at the U.S. Open came in 2020, when he tied for eighth place. Thomas ended his winless drought since 2022 with a victory at the RBC Heritage in April. Despite that, he remains ranked No. 5 in the world. This week, he was asked a simple question about World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who has been dominant over the past two months on Tour and Thomas had a clear and in depth answer. Thomas was asked, 'What is Scottie Scheffler doing that is so special? What do you say?' Advertisement 'What is he doing?' Thomas replied. 'Well, everything.'

Every single aspect of his game is unbelievable. I think his mental game is better than anybody else's out here. To be able to play with those expectations and to stay present as often as he has—to me, that's maybe more impressive than even the golf he's playing. 'I just think it's so, so hard to do, and it's also hard to explain if you're in his shoes. He just doesn't make mistakes and almost lets himself be in contention rather than forcing it. He just seems to be playing better.' Scottie Scheffler has been the most dominant golfer in the world by a wide margin over the past two to three years. In a sport where consistency is notoriously difficult to maintain week to week, he has managed to do exactly that. Advertisement Scheffler has already recorded four PGA Tour wins this year, including a major victory at the PGA Championship. Remarkably, he has not missed a cut since 2022—his streak now stands at 56 consecutive events. He also enters the U.S. Open with seven straight top-10 finishes. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Scheffler is the clear favorite heading into the U.S. Open—a tournament he has yet to win. Trailing him on the odds board are defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Rory McIlroy.

Scottie Scheffler Has No Doubt Naming Hardest PGA Tour Course Before U.S. Open
Scottie Scheffler Has No Doubt Naming Hardest PGA Tour Course Before U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The top players in the world have arrived at Oakmont this week ahead of day one of the U.S. Open, which begins Thursday and marks the third major of the year on the PGA Tour. Advertisement One thing has been made clear over the first two days of practice: the course is brutally difficult—especially when players find themselves in the rough. Several stars, including Xander Schauffele, Bryson DeChambeau, Tyrrell Hatton, and Scottie Scheffler, have all commented on how thick and punishing the grass is around the greens. On Tuesday, Scheffler had zero doubt in calling Oakmont the hardest course he—and likely anyone else in the field—will ever play. "I kind of equate some of the major tests to... I mean, like the majors in tennis—you're playing on different surfaces: grass, clay, and then hard court—and it's a different style of game," Scheffler said. "The U.S. Open compared to the Masters is a completely different type of test. At the Masters, you have a lot more shot-making when you get around the green because it's mostly fairway. "And then when you get here, it's a lot of hacking out of the rough. You still have to be extremely precise, but when you talk about strength and power, I think that becomes more of a factor at these tournaments. Because when you hit it in the rough, you have to muscle it out of there." Scheffler added, "I mean, this is probably the hardest golf course that we'll play—maybe ever." Scheffler has had another remarkable year and is the undisputed world No. 1. After a historic 2024 campaign, he may not quite match that pace, but he's still on track for another legendary run in 2025. Advertisement He already has four tournament victories this season, including his first PGA Championship title—which marked his third career major win. Two of those three major victories have come at the Masters. The U.S. Open and The Open Championship are the final two tournaments Scheffler needs to win in order to complete the career Grand Slam—a feat Rory McIlroy accomplished earlier this year after winning at Augusta, becoming just the sixth player in history to do so. Scottie Scheffler addresses the crowd after winning the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday golf Doster-Imagn Images Scheffler skipped the RBC Canadian Open this past week to get in extra preparation for Oakmont, where the conditions could lead to some high scores. It wouldn't be surprising if only a handful of players finish at or just under par heading into Sunday.
