British Patrick Leonard finished the eventful SCOOP (Spring Championship of Online Poker) 2026 as the greatest champion of all time in the PokerStars series. While Swedish Simon Mattsson, who was leading at the start of this edition of the festival, came away empty-handed, the red site’s “pads1161” was stacking titles.

More precisely, Patrick Leonard now has 16 SCOOP titles in his career. Six of them came this year, in a true show in Mixed Games. Among the achievements of the six titles, only two came in No-Limit Hold’em tournaments. Completing the list, there were two 8-Game tournaments, one of PLO Hi/Lo and one of 2-7 Triple Draw.
Thus, the British player made a jump in the ranking. Like him, others climbed up together, thanks to a notable performance in 2026. Swedish Jerry Odeen “Perrymejsen” is one of them, as he won five tournaments this year and now has 15 in total. Mattsson continues with 14, while Andre Skvortsov “Premove” and “Fal1st” have 13 each.
Brazilian dominance in SCOOP 2026
Just like Patrick Leonard did, only two other players were able to win six tournaments in this SCOOP. One of them is Brazilian Renan Bruschi “Internett93o”, who thanks to this incredible streak in the month, also places himself in the dispute for the greatest champions of all time, with 12 titles in his resume.

The only one who surpassed both Leonard and Bruschi was “king153246”. The player achieved an incredible seven titles throughout SCOOP 2026, leading the festival’s ranking this year in isolation.
However, when it comes to dominance in SCOOP, it is impossible not to mention Brazil. Out of the 400 disputes held by the series, Brazil simply won 105, an absolute record. The second country in the ranking was the United Kingdom, which combined 59 titles. It is not a negligible number, but still, it falls far short of Brazilian performance.
Following the count of titles by country, the traditional Nordic countries appear, with Finland (22) and Sweden (21). Canada comes just below with 18, while Austria and Mexico won 13 victories each. Argentina with 12, Ukraine with 11 and Bulgaria and Denmark with 10 each, complete the list of nations with double digits.
