Adam Schenk Captures First PGA Tour Win at Butterfield Bermuda Championship

The 33-year-old’s breakthrough secures his card through 2027 after an even-par 71 in 40 mph gusts.

Overview

  • Schenk edged Chandler Phillips by one stroke with a five-foot par on the 18th after his approach ran long.
  • He finished 12-under 272 with one birdie and one bogey on Sunday, earning $1.08 million from a $6 million purse.
  • Sustained winds near 30 mph with gusts up to 40–45 mph battered Port Royal and forced earlier tee times.
  • The victory moves Schenk from No. 134 to 67 in the FedEx Cup Fall, while Phillips climbs from 139 to 92 and Takumi Kanaya sits 99 after a late miss.
  • Schenk leaned on low stingers, flighted wedges and occasional one-handed putting to manage the conditions and close out his 243rd Tour start.
