Phil Mickelson has won the year-long Player Impact Program and Tiger Woods took second place, multiple sources confirmed to GolfChannel.com on Wednesday.
Mickelson tweeted that he’d won the $8 million PIP bonus that’s based on various social and traditional media measurements and sources confirmed that Woods, who didn’t play an official PGA Tour event in 2021 as he recovered from a February car crash, won $6 million for finishing second.
The Tour created the program this year to reward the players that bring the most interest to the circuit but kept the PIP list confidential. Players were told where they were ranked on the list but were not granted access to the entire ranking.
