In a touching display of compassion and generosity, Scottie Scheffler has captured hearts across the globe by announcing that he will donate half of his prize money from his very first PGA Tour win to charity. The donation will go directly to support 12 children battling cancer at the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee.

St. Jude is internationally known for its unwavering mission: providing life-saving treatment to children with life-threatening illnesses — completely free of charge. By choosing to support this institution, Scheffler not only contributes financially but also helps shine a spotlight on the importance of giving hope to families facing unimaginable challenges.

“I’ve been incredibly blessed in my career,” Scheffler said. “This is one small way I can give back and honor those who are fighting battles far tougher than anything on the golf course.”

His heartfelt gesture has resonated deeply with fans, fellow athletes, and the wider community — a reminder that beyond the trophies and headlines, true greatness is measured in character and compassion.

As Scheffler’s star continues to rise on the PGA Tour, it’s moments like this that show the world what true champions are made of — not just skill and focus, but empathy, humility, and a commitment to making a difference.
