A historic win for Matt McCarty comes with a big payday.
McCarty won three times in six events on the Korn Ferry Tour to earn his automatic promotion to the PGA Tour. In his second start on Tour since the promotion, he won again, capturing the 2024 Black Desert Championship at 23 under to by three shots over Stephan Jaeger.
The win is significant for many reasons. It gives him better status as a PGA Tour winner, which means a two-year exemption, and he also gets 500 FedEx Cup points and the winner’s check, which is $1.35 million.
