The 2026 WSOP Player of the Year race remains exceptionally tight because William Foxen, Shaun Deeb, and Naoya Kihara sit within roughly 30 points at the top of the official leaderboard after the Las Vegas schedule concluded in July. Foxen’s consistent final tables and bracelet in no-limit hold’em events built an early edge that Deeb erased with strong mixed-game results, including his ninth career bracelet, while Kihara’s deep runs in high rollers kept him within striking distance. Only the top 15 scores count, so volume across WSOP Europe, Las Vegas, and the upcoming Paradise series in December continues to separate these grinders from the field. Trader consensus reflects this narrow gap, with minor swings in remaining high-point events capable of shifting the lead before the season ends.
