Caddies make HOW much?

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/matt-ku...223808034.html

The key elements of this story are:

1. Some dude I've never heard of won $1.3 million in a golf tournament somewhere.

2. He had hired a temporary caddy, and he paid the caddy $5,000.

3. According to the article, caddies regularly get 10 percent of tournament winnings.

4. Apparently there was a golf tempest and the guy offered the caddy another $15,000, but the caddy wanted an additional $45,000 to get to a total of $50,000.

5. Apparently the golf tempest continued, so the golfer dude ended up paying the caddy dude a total of $50,000.

What is this? What world do we live in where a caddy makes $50,000 in a tournament, and apparently the going rate would have been $130,000? Yeah, I know they carry the clubs and make recommendations on the green and stuff, but come on.

I mean, $1.3 million for a golfer is just as ridiculous, but at least the golfer can claim that he was the best at it.

All of you guys with kids need to start training them to caddy. It's way less difficult than long snapping.

He's an example of the modern, bloated purse structure. He almost never contends in majors and rarely wins tournaments because he'd rather finish in the top 10 than adopt more risk to try to win.

Douchebag is the guy who benefited from local knowledge trying to save a few percentage points on a seven figure purse by not even contemplating a win bonus for his bag.

Penny-wise, pound-foolish.

Good point. He probably went to the wedding of a niece who he didn't even really like, and then spent the weekend cursing into his phone screen.

I think it would be more like "Hmm, looks like we have to break to the left around that tree. What do you think: Flippy Flier or Wham-o big dish?
