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. |

What people don't know is that Kuchar is one of the notorious cheapskates on tour. Tiger is too, but that's another can of worms.

The FREAKING caddie agreed on a price and that's that. He was just being a publicity hoar and wanting everyone to put public pressure on the guy to force him to pay. I wish he would of kept it at 5K, I would of had way more respect for him. The caddie should have said 5k but if you win 50K, if he agrees great, but that was never on the table. Man I hate that caddie... |

Eight a tourney. If he helps him make one put out of eight, that can be worth 400-600K.

Right but all caddies on the PGA tour can help with all of these tasks. The issue isn’t whether he helped more or less. He agreed on a contract was then offered triple and .... fuc$ I have no idea why this pisses me off more because it’s so obvious what the guy did. Dousche bag

It would be creepy to carry a big bag of arms for 18 holes, though.

I didn't read that he had offered that. If true, that would obviously change the perception a lot.

Good range, but they tend to hook left.
