Here’s the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour Championship
Mike Mulholland
Blades Brown was looking for his first professional victory, but Austin Hitt jumped up and shot a final-round 66 to capture the Korn Ferry Tour Championship at the Federal Club in Glen Allen, Va. Hitt took home $270,000 from the overall $1.5 million purse. It was his first Korn Ferry Tour victory and it helped him earn a PGA Tour card for 2027.
"Even all the way until the end I tried to trick myself that I wouldn’t make it until I won," Hitt said.
He shot 68-62-68-66 for a 20-under 264 total, two ahead of Brown. Alistair Docherty was third place. All three men will be on the PGA Tour next year as they ended inside the top 20 on the season-long points.
