In 2024, Highsmith played in 26 tournaments, made the cut 13 times, and secured seven top-five finishes, along with three top-10s. His biggest flex that season? A fifth-place finish at the World Wide Technology Championship, where he tore up the course at 19-under-par, bringing in $1,340,018 in official earnings for the year.
This year started as a bit of a rollercoaster—he missed some cuts but also showed he could bounce back, with a T17 finish at the Mexico Open and a scorching T8 at the Cognizant Classic (where he fired a third-round 64).
But then came his career-defining moment—a victory at the Cognizant Classic, which earned him a whopping $1,656,000. This not only boosted his confidence, but also skyrocketed his season earnings to $1,774,406 so far.
Does Joe Highsmith endorse any brand?
When it comes to making money in golf, tournament winnings are only half the story. The real magic happens when you land some sweet endorsement deals. Highsmith has one of the best in the business: Titleist.

As one of golf’s most trusted brands, Titleist keeps him stocked with top-tier clubs and golf balls, proving they see some serious potential in him. And let’s be real—sponsorships like these don’t just pad the wallet; they also put a player on the map. With more exposure and bigger performances (like his Cognizant Classic win), Highsmith could attract even more lucrative deals down the road.
Where does Highsmith stand in the golf world?
So, how’s he stacking up against the competition now? With his first PGA Tour win in the bag, Highsmith has made a huge leap in rankings. As of 2025, he now sits at 170th in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR). No more waiting for that big win. He’s officially a PGA Tour champion. Plenty of big names took years before they secured their first victory, and now, Highsmith has joined that club.
