For the third time in his PGA Tour career, Sepp Straka hoisted a trophy at tournament's end. Converting a four-stroke lead at the 54-hole mark into a victory at the 2025 American Express, Straka fended off a crowded chasing pack headlined by Justin Thomas.

Even though Justin Thomas finished two back of Sepp Straka at The American Express, the two-time PGA Championship winner made PGA Tour history. Cha-ching! With his $959,200 payday, Thomas became only the 11th player to earn more than $60 million during his career,

The closest to him was Justin Thomas, who shot a 66 to finish at 23-under. After his great performance, the American golfer emphasized he was close to his opponent, but Straka's advantage before the final round was decisive. The 31-year-old golfer is proud of himself, stressing that he did everything he could.
