Tiger Woods’ former caddie’s ridiculously drops a worth says a lot about golf legend Full details below ⬇️⬇️
Steve Williams caddied for Woods between 1999 and 2011, racking up a serious fortune thanks to the 15-time major winner’s own success out on the course
The PGA Tour’s site notes that Woods is the circuit’s highest-ever earner, with an accumulative prize pot of £94.2million ($120m) throughout his 28-year stint. Williams, who was once touted as the highest-paid sportsperson in his nation, received a fortune of his own for his duties to Woods out on the course thanks to both his salary and earning a percentage of Woods’ own winnings.
Woods achieved 64 victories on the Tour during that time. He also won 13 of his 15 majors, nine Tour Player of the Year awards, and spent 281 weeks at World No. 1 between June 2005 and October 2010. And the golf legend isn’t the only pro player that Williams has had the pleasure of working with either.

He caddied for Adam Scott between 2011 and 2017 – also taking to the courses with the Australian between 2022 and 2023 – while working with Jason Day in 2019. However, his association with Scott represented the beginning of the end of his partnership with Woods.
Williams asked for Woods’ permission to caddie for the now 44-year-old at the 2011 US Open, after Woods himself was ruled out through injury. While Woods agreed to the move, Williams revealed at the time that his boss of 12 years had a change of heart – ultimately leading to a withering working relationship.
