Scheffler-Caddie’s Prize Money Trumps 80 Percent of Tour Players

Scottie Scheffler is dominating this year on the PGA Tour, raking in million-dollar prize money after million-dollar prize money. In 15 tournament appearances, the world number one won his sixth title and completed his 13th (!) top 10 finish at last week’s Travelers Championship. This brings Scheffler’s prize money in the 2024 calendar year alone to around 25.9 million euros (27.7 million US dollars). His caddie Ted Scott also benefits from this: with a ten percent share of prize money for Tour victories and seven percent for top-10 finishes, the usual shares on Tour, Scott even outperforms almost 80 percent of Tour players.

PGA Tour: Ted Scott with more prize money than Spieth, Fowler & Co.

On the PGA Tour, caddies usually receive a fixed share of the player’s prize money, which is based on their ranking: Ten percent for a win, seven percent for the top 10 and five percent for making the cut. With these percentages, Ted Scott, Scottie Scheffler’s caddie, would receive prize money of around 2.46 million euros (2.63 million US dollars) in this calendar year alone. That would not only be almost a million euros more than the Tour average, but also more prize money than 80 percent of the Tour players. Ted Scott would be ranked 46th out of 232 players with this prize money. The caddie is ahead of well-known players such as Jordan Spieth (€2.34 million), Adam Scott (€1.56 million) and Rickie Fowler (€1.02 million).

Scottie Scheffler understandably holds Ted Scott in high esteem and credits him with a large part of his impressive successes. The collaboration almost never came to fruition: After 15 intensive years at Bubba Watson’s side, the caddie actually wanted to work more as a golf instructor again. Then came the call from Scottie Scheffler. After careful consideration, Scott accepted the offer from the best golfer in the world at the time and, almost two years later, is unlikely to regret his decision.

Career prize money on the PGA Tour: Scottie Scheffler already in fifth place and on course to set a record

By winning the Travelers Championship 2024, Scottie Scheffler not only achieved his sixth victory on the PGA Tour this calendar year, but also leapt to seventh place in the career prize money list (€65.7 million). Scheffler celebrated his 28th birthday a few days ago and, considering his age, is well on the way to climbing further up the rankings. Vijay Singh, Jim Furyk and Dustin Johnson and the top three of Rory McIlroy (€84.3 million), Phil Mickelson (€90.4 million) and Tiger Woods (€113.1 million) are currently ahead of him. Scheffler is also well on his way to setting the record for the highest prize money in a season on the PGA Tour.
