Adam Schenk Wins Wind-Lashed Bermuda Championship for First PGA Tour Title

The win locks up a two-year PGA Tour exemption, vaulting him to No. 67 in the FedEx Cup Fall ahead of next week's finale.

Overview

  • He closed with an even-par 71 at Port Royal to finish 12-under 272 and beat Chandler Phillips by one.
  • Sustained 30 mph winds with 40–45 mph gusts forced conservative shotmaking; Schenk leaned on low trajectories and a one-handed putting drill.
  • The breakthrough came in his 243rd PGA Tour start after a season that included 15 missed cuts.
  • He earns $1.08 million from the $6 million purse and gains entries to The Players and the PGA Championship, with full status secured through 2027.
  • Phillips’ runner-up moved him from No. 139 to about No. 92 in the FedEx Cup Fall, with final standings decided at next week’s RSM Classic.
