In a year where Scottie Scheffler has won six times and dominated the PGA Tour, it has also been a good season for first-time winners on Tour. Whether it was the amateur winning for the first time in 33 years in January or a scoring record going down in July, there have been nine first-time winners on the PGA Tour in 2024. Those range from rookies to seasoned veterans and from all over the globe.
And those wins have come from California to Florida and Canada to Mexico. With numerous tournaments left on the schedule, there are bound to be a couple more first-time winners, but as the final major championship of the year and FedEx Cup Playoffs creep closer, only nine have joined an exclusive club as a PGA Tour winner.
Here’s a look at the players who picked up their first PGA Tour win this year:
