Russell Henley, one of Team USA’s automatic Ryder Cup picks, has enjoyed a standout 2025 season. The 36-year-old secured his fifth PGA Tour Victory in March at the Arnold Palmer Invitational after a dramatic eagle chip against Collin Morikawa. He also had top-10 finishes at The Open and the US Open, reported The Mirror.
Henley, a turnaround professional in 2011, has earnings of $54 million and an estimated net worth of $15 million. Playing style and tactical approach will probably label this player among the very consistent performers on the PGA Tour, the report added.
