Fans In Disbelief Over Massive Earnings Of Scottie Scheffler’s Caddie This Year
Scottie Scheffler has had a historic PGA Tour season, on pace to break the record for most money made in a single season. Through the PGA season, Scheffler has made nearly $28 million, making himself not only the highest-paid golfer in the organization but also his caddie, Ted Scott, the highest-paid aide in the PGA.
Scott has reportedly earned $2.63 million from Scheffler’s tour winnings, per Barstool Gambling. The No. 1 golfer in the world has six tournament wins through the PGA season, becoming the first player to do so before July 1st since Arnold Palmer in 1962, per The Athletic.
Scheffler has been with Scott since 2021 and the two have since taken over the professional golf scene.
Scheffler’s career earnings have been estimated to be around $70 million through his 12 PGA Tour victories.
His caddie doesn’t compare to others around the tour. Through the 2024 season, he’s making more money than three-time major winner Jordan Spieth. Fans reacted to the caddie’s earnings on social media, sharing their initial thoughts on the news.
Scott and Scheffler will have a chance to add to their purse in the Scottish Open in July.
